Nothing Really Matters Lyrics

I feel coming on an upset stomach

This morning my red nose started to bleed

My eyes lately have been tinted with jaundice

I no longer really look like me

I think I just hugged you for the last time

The tears were so violent, streaming from my face into your shoulder

And though the dust has settled, nothing really matters like you did

Nothing really matters like we did

I've become the girl who drinks on Monday

Awaiting word to keep on with mistakes

Driving home and cursing in my lonesome

When it amounts to nothing and I wake

I think we just gave up for the last time

Oh, it's been a while since love was all we needed from each other

And though we're rusted metal, nothing really matters like you do

Nothing really matters like we used to

I hate that I didn't learn a thing

Except that I'm worse off, and you're better sober from me

Can get this shirt off, but I still can't get what I need off my chest

And to you, the rest of it still matters

And though it's really over

And though I might get better

And though I'll find another

And though I might get sober

And though the rest is silence

And though the branch is olive

And though you'll never take it

I can't help but keep thinking

If I did something different

If I could be forgiven

If I was not this woman

If I wasn't unwritten

If you were still unshattered

If I could break this pattern

If you could just admit

That none of it matters

Nothing really matters like we did
