[Verse 1]
Deep horrible blues
Watching you work the room
There's a frequency of trouble
In the car to Malibu
I'll be crying on your milk-white sheets
Hoping one day we're married
In a house you'll build around me
[Pre-Chorus]
I guess I believe
I believe in old-fashioned things
Imagining us
But the longer I stay, I can see you
What's happening? What's happening?
[Chorus]
Welcome to my Melrose meltdown
Nobody ever breaks up, we just break down
We really fu*ked it up in diamonds and drugstores
That's what we came for
And when you get it, you got what you need
[Verse 2]
Handing out gold stars for tailor-made behaviour
I can see your demons shining like prizes
I'm sat out on the balcony
Too sad to go to the party
It's a crime loving you so, it's a crime letting you go
[Pre-Chorus]
I guess I believe
I believe in old-fashioned things
Imagining us
But the longer I stay, I can see you
What's happening? What's happening?
[Chorus]
Welcome to my Melrose meltdown
Nobody ever breaks up, we just break down
We really fu*ked it up in diamonds and drugstores
That's what we came for
And when you get it, you got what you need
[Bridge]
Got what you need
When you hang up and say, "I'll see you later"
Got what you need
Write it down, California paper
Got what you need
Forevermore, my anti-hero
For loving and letting me go down, down
[Chorus]
Welcome to my Melrose meltdown
Nobody ever breaks up, we just break down
We really fu*ked it up in diamonds and drugstores
That's what we came for
And when you get it, you got what you need
[Outro]
Welcome to my Melrose meltdown
We just break down
(And when you get it, you got what you need)
