He says he doesn't want me
He just won't say it's a lie
He just won't say it's a lie
Doesn't know where I'm at
He's been asking, finds the irony
Oh, to be the ex-boyfriend's best ex
I hear your prayers, I say goodbye
He says your mouth is worthless
I lost faith in what your kiss gave
Promises from an atheist who now prays
Oh, I admitted I was wrong
I saw it coming that you'd turn your back
Oh, I took the key when I closed the door
Now, love, in your chest it still rains
After bad luck comes good luck
Oh, but not after me
He says he doesn't want me
He just won't say it's a lie
He just won't say it's a lie
Doesn't know where I'm at
He's been asking, finds the irony
Oh, to be the ex-boyfriend's best ex
Tick-tock, tell everyone I've flipped
I saw, in fact, that the beautiful turns ugly
Oh, it turned, now that you're going through what I went through
Oh, love, he says he won't come back
He's the first, he's at my door– oh, love
He says he doesn't want me
He just won't say it's a lie
He just won't say it's a lie
Doesn't know where I'm at
He's been asking, finds the irony
Oh, to be the ex-boyfriend's best ex
