lyrics

i picked up my landline while listening to CDs
after reading the paper had me feeling obsolete
and your voice on the line caught me reelin’ in defeat
when you said “everything ends, baby"

oh, you gotta make room for the new things
can’t hold on to things you outgrew
you've gotta make room for the new things
and i’m just old news, so are you, so are you

like a story you’ve read, go on and put me on the shelf
pick up another one tomorrow and start dreaming of someone else
but i’m a heartbroken lover who sees no close to regrets
i tell myself “everything ends, baby"

oh, you gotta make room for the new things
can’t hold on to things you outgrew
you've gotta make room for the new things
and i’m just old news, so are you, so are you

i take the good, i take the bad
can i be honest with myself
the things i held i never really had

oh, you gotta make
room for the new
