She said "You're always broke" I said "Well duh, I know" She said "I guess I'd better go" I've got empty pockets and an empty head the empty feeling of an empty bed I guess our relationship is dead Now I'm on my own and I'm living all alone Now I'm truly broke I'm as broke as I can be... [Chorus:] Can't afford to live Can't afford to die Can't afford to laugh Can't afford to cry I can't afford you in my life Can't afford to love Can't afford to lie Can't afford to live Can't afford to die I can't afford you in my life They said "It only goes to show" I said "Well duh, I know" They said "Well we told you so" I got an empty bottle in an empty room an empty stomach crying bombs not food I guess our relationship was doomed Now I'm on my own and I'm living far from home Now I'm truly broke I'm as broke as I can be... [Rep't Chorus] Can't afford to end Can't afford to start Can't afford to mend My fucking heart Don't you know it's tearing me apart
