Scratching your head
Bloodshot eyes, drunk with regret
Hanging yourself ten feet over the edge

I’m done with this, feeling like an idiot
Loving you, I’m over it
I just don’t love you, don’t love you no more

You, you are so yesterday
Never thought you’d lose my love this way
Now you come begging me to stay

Honey, you, you are so yesterday
I won’t let you rain on my parade

So yesterday

And now you wanna reminisce
Say you wanna try again

Don’t wanna hear a thing you say

So yesterday
