[Verse 1]
You say you're sick and tired
Of feeling sick and tired
I walked and told the truth
Do you wish I'd stayed alive?

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause she said that you said that I said
She said that I said, "The love's dead"
And I tried to explain
Don't expect you to be the same

[Chorus]
On this rockin' roller coaster, an emotional ride
We were just an average B side
We were just an average B side

[Verse 2]
I watched the past run by
On the silver screen
We played our parts and died
Scene by scene

[Pre-Chorus]
When she said that you said that I said
She said that I said, "The love's dead"
And I try to explain
Don't expect you to feel the same

[Chorus]
On this rockin' roller coaster, an emotional ride
We were just an average B side, oh B side

[Bridge]
Pretend you like me
Pretend I like you
Pretend, pretend, pretend
This is not happening

[Chorus]
On rockin' roller coaster, an emotional ride
We were just an average B side
On rockin' roller coaster, an emotional ride
We were just an average B side
We were just an average B side
We were just an average B side
