You've read the books,

You've watched the shows,

What's the best way no one knows, yeah,

 (Medicated?), hypnotized.

Anything to take it from your mind.

 But it won’t go,

 You're doing all these things out of desperation,

Oh, whoa,

 You're going through six degrees of separation.

You hear the drinking, take a toll

Watch the past go up in smoke.

Fake a smile, yeah, lie and say

You're better now than ever, and your life's okay

 When it's not, whoa

 You're doing all these things out of desperation,

Oh, whoa,

 You're going through six degrees of separation.

First, you think the worst is a broken heart

 What's gonna kill you is the second part

 And the third, is when your world splits down the middle

 And fourth, you're gonna think that you fixed yourself

 Fifth, you see them out with someone else

And the sixth, is when you admit that you may have fucked up a little

((My mother ain't no help?), it's every man for himself) x2

You tell your friends, yeah, strangers too,

Anyone flowing all around you, yeah

Tarot cards, Gems and stones,

Believing all that shit is gonna heal your soul.

 We'll it's not, no

 Your only doing things out of desperation,

Oh, no

 Your goin' through six degrees of separation.

First, you think the worst is a broken heart

 What's gonna kill you is the second part

 And the third, is when your world splits down the middle

 And fourth, you're gonna think that you fixed yourself

 Fifth, you see them out with someone else

And the sixth, is when you admit that you may have fucked up a little

No there's no starting over,

Without finding closure,

You take them back, no hesitation,

That's when you know you've reached the sixth degree of separation

(Repeat)

First, you think the worst is a broken heart

 What's gonna kill you is the second part

 And the third, is when your world splits down the middle

 And fourth, you're gonna think that you fixed yourself

 Fifth, you see them out with someone else

And the sixth, is when you admit that you may have fucked up a little
