"this is why i can't have nice things: interlude" lyrics

Think I met a guy
He's such a smart intellect
Hopped back on a plane
Been missing him since he left
Got a couple things
I wanna get off my chest
But I want him to like me
So I left it unsaid
Things are going great
But there's always a catch
Mine comes in the form of
A shitty old ex
There's something about you
I can't get out of my head
I kinda think you're the best
I've been trying really hard
Don't want this to fall apart
Swear this man was made from art
He's got the biggest heart
Too bad I'm gonna break it

I can't have nothin' nice
It always ends in pieces
So used to people leaving
Can you help me with this knife
It's in my back, I'm bleeding
Nobody even sees it
'Cause nobody cares like I do
I don't trust you
I've got issues
Baby that's my red flag
Just thought that you should know that

But I can't have nothin' nice
It always ends in pieces
I'm used to people leaving
