Description
A song about the obsession phase after a bad break-up. It's as honest as I could be about the pathetic, borderline stalking, "Oh she'll take me back" denial that I went thru for over a year after a bad break-up. When I started to get over her, I realized that I hadn't written any songs about it. I turned off my phone and wrote 6 songs in 5 days. This was the quickest write and the most therapeutic. It's all true.
Lyrics
You keep checkin online, keep checkin on your phone for any kind of sign that she's still alone Then you'd have a chance, maybe you could get her back Just a side effect of living in the past Sometimes it's even hard just to get out of the bed Thoughts of her there still lying in my head The way we'd roll around, three hours at a time then fall asleep with your mouth on mine SIDE EFFECTS OF LIVING IN THE PAST THESE ARE THE SIDE EFFECTS OF LIVING IN THE PAST Even in my car I can see you there sitting Holding on my arm at the red light kissing All the wrong words singing to the radio What I wwouldn't give for just one more show BRIDGE Tomorrow is another day, I hope it doesn't turn out to be the same Maybe I'll find a way to stop living in our yesterday Chorus
