"The Option" lyrics

Girl, shouldn't you know that I know?
There's no secret to hold
You've been running with another dude
'Cause when I come home, I do know
The smell on the pillows
Isn't the same cologne I use

Boy, isn't it awesome always being the option
And being the last one that she runs to?
And I know that you worry, always being done dirty
And never doing what's convenient for you
But you gotta keep hope even though you don't know
What the future might bring to you
Boy, isn't it awesome?

There ain't no need for a wellness check
It's been five days since I left my bed
'Cause I'd be better here than with her instead
Of letting her play little games with my head
I'd rather be gone, I'd rather be dead
Six feet in the ground than in this mess
I think I'd be happier instead

Boy, isn't it awesome always being the option
And being the last one that she runs to?
And I know that you worry, always being done dirty
And never doing what's convenient for you
But you gotta keep hope even though you don't know
What the future might bring to you
Boy, isn't it awesome?

If I don't drink and go early to rest
I still feel like shit the next day and stress
So I might as well drink myself to bed
The moment I begin to forget
You come back around and you ruin it
How many goddamn times will I say yes?
You were the woman who made me feel like the best
Now when I hear your fucking name, I need a cigarette
I'd be better if you'd shown no interest

Boy, isn't it awesome always being the option
And being the last one that she runs to?
But you gotta keep hope even though you don't know
What this fucked up world might bring to you
Boy, isn't it awesome?

Boy, isn't it awesome
Always being the option?
