You've read the books

You've watched the shows

What's the best way no one knows

You meditate, get hypnotized

Anything to take it from your mind

But it won't go

You're doing all these things out of desperation

Oh, oh, you're going through six degrees of separation

You hit the drink, you take a toke

Watch the past go up in smoke

You fake a smile, you, lie and say that

I'm better now than ever, and your life's okay

Well it's not, no

You're doing all these things out of desperation

Oh, oh, 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 'em out with someone else

And the sixth is when you admit

That you may have messed up a little

No no there ain't no help

It's every man for himself

No no there ain't no help

It's every man for himself

You tell your friends, yeah, strangers too

Anyone will throw an arm around you

Tarot cards

Gems and stones

Believing all that shit's gonna heal your soul

Well it's not, no

You're only doing things out of desperation,

Oh oh, 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 'em out with someone else

And the sixth is when you admit

That you may have messed up a little

No there's no starting over

Without finding closure

You'd take 'em back

No hesitation

That's when you know

You've reached the sixth degreee of separation

No there's no starting over

Without finding closure

You take 'em back

No hesitation

That's how you know

You've reached the sixth degreee 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 'em out with someone else

And the sixth is when you admit

That you may have messed up a little

No no there ain't no help

It's every man for himself

You're going through six degrees of separation

No no there ain't no help

It's every man for himself

You're going through six degrees of separation

No no there ain't no help

It's every man for himself

No no there ain't no help

It's every man for himself

No no there ain't no help

It's every man for himself

You're going through six degrees of separation
