Cup of Coffee
Garbage Lyrics

You tell me you don't love me over a cup of coffee
You reveal your feelings of not loving me while we share a cup of coffee.

And I just have to look away
I don't want to accept the reality so I prefer to look away.

A million miles between us
We are emotionally and mentally apart from each other even though we are physically close.

Planets crashing to dust
Our relationship is falling apart like planets colliding and exploding in space.

I just let it fade away
I choose to let go and allow the relationship to dissolve on its own.

I'm walking empty streets hoping we might meet
I wander aimlessly hoping to run into you by chance.

I see your car parked on the road
I notice your car parked on the side of the road.

The light on at your window
I can see the light shining from your window which makes me think you're home.

I know for sure that you're home
I am confident that you're at home.

But I just have to pass on by
Despite the temptation to see you, I choose to keep walking and pass by without stopping.

So no of course we can't be friends
It's not possible for us to remain friends after what we've been through.

Not while I'm still this obsessed
As long as I'm still consumed with thoughts of you, we can't be friends.

I guess I always knew the score
Deep down I always knew that things wouldn't work out between us.

This is how our story ends
This is the conclusion of our relationship.

I smoke your brand of cigarettes
I try to ease the pain of losing you by smoking the same brand of cigarettes you used to smoke.

And pray that you might give me a call
I still hope that you'll call me and reconcile with me.

I lie around in bed all day just staring at the walls
I feel so empty and lost that I spend my days in bed staring at the walls.

Hanging round bars at night wishing I had never been born
I spend my nights drinking in bars and feeling like my life is meaningless.

And give myself to anyone who wants to take me home
I give myself away to anyone who shows me any attention or affection.

You left behind some clothes
You forgot some of your clothes at my place.

My belly somersaults when I pick them off the floor
I feel physically ill when I see your clothes lying on the floor.

My friends all say they're worried
My friends express concern for my wellbeing.

I'm looking far too skinny
My friends think I am losing too much weight and looking unhealthily thin.

I've stopped returning all their calls
I have stopped communicating with my friends and ignoring their attempts to reach me.

Not while I'm still so obsessed
While I'm still consumed by thoughts of you, we can't be friends.

I want to ask where I went wrong
I want to know what I did to cause you to leave me.

But don't say anything at all
But I don't want to hear the answer or discuss it further.

It took a cup of coffee
All it took was a simple conversation over coffee.

To prove that you don't love me
For me to finally realize that you don't love me anymore.
