So you got my email today
And now you’re wondering what to say
Well, I can think of a few things you could say to me
I’ll write them down now for you, clearly

Well you could say: Baby, I love you and we’re gonna be ok
Or you could try: I’m coming home, and I’ve changed
You could say: I’m sorry for all the things I did
I’m sorry that I left you, I was just crazy and stupid

You could say you miss me and you want me back
And you can apologize for breakin’ my heart like that

Oh but it was just a pretty hologram to play in
A pretty girl for you to muck around with
A pretty lie I fell into
A pretty big mess when it all boils down

When am I gonna find a man who’s not addicted?
When am I gonna find a way to kick this?
When am I gonna get myself a good time?
When am I gonna find Mr Right?

Oh cause it was just a pretty hologram to play in
You were a pretty boy to pretend with
It was a pretty lie I fell into
A pretty big mess when it all boils down to it

When it all boils down

You can say you love me in any language that you like
But it doesn’t mean a thing if you don’t make it real in real life
So I’m done with your semantics in place of Real Love
I’m gonna fly away now. One Owl. One Dove

You built me a pretty hologram and I jumped in
You were a pretty boy to pretend with
It was a pretty lie I fell into
A pretty big mess when it all boils down to it

A pretty big mess
A great shame
A pretty big mess
And just another one of your stupid games
