Story Behind The Song
Originally written as a ballad, but when it was changed to an all-out rock tune, the same lyrics that were once heartfelt and bittersweet came out sounding heartless and bitter. Cool.

Lyrics
Saw your picture in the paper
Looks like he might, well, he might treat ya? good
I put it on my refrigerator
It could be me, it could be me ? well, it should
Ya? see, I?ve fallen a bit into this rut
Foolish mistakes bring you down on your luck
It?s a good thing?.that you left me when you did?
As I bleed, you no longer need me
And I?m glad you?re happy ? glad you?re happy
I don?t know, much of letting go
But I?m glad you?re happy ? glad you?re happy now
I was thinkin? maybe I should call ya?
Congratulate you?think of something cool to say
I don?t want you getting the wrong idea
Even though I know you will anyway
Things don?t work out like they do on T.V.
?less you?re the victim or a villain in a bad movie
As for me?.I?m just tryin? to change the channel now?.
(Chorus)
And somewhere between trying on and taking off your dress
If just once, you think of me, would your ego let you confess?
I don?t know much of lettin? go
(Chorus)
