lyrics

I swear I can feel it, this whole city is sad
I swear I can feel it, this whole city is sad
I swear I can feel it, this whole city is sad
I swear I can feel it and it makes me mad
'cause the sun passes by like we're unpleasant to look at
I swear I can feel it and it's taking me back

We rolled around on the carpet at your apartment
My memory is fading, not forgotten

Everybody's breaking up, (yeah!)

There's a girl that I know, ain't she pretty? Ain't she pleasant?
In her hometown she was rich, but in the city she's just a peasant
She's in love with my brother though she don't really know him
And he can't really love her cause he's happy lonesome
She's in love with my brother thought she don't hardly know him
And he can't really love her cause he's happy lonesome

They rolled around on the carpet at her apartment
Every brand new love will be forgotten

Everybody's breaking up, (yeah!)

I keep seeing all your faces, reliving all your joys
I don't remember any sorrow, gorgeous girls and good ol' boys

We're lonesome, we like it, we're empty, we don't mind it
We're lonesome, we like it, we're empty, we don't mind it
Oh yes we're lonesome, I kinda like it, I'm empty, but it's alright

Everybody's breaking up
