This Is Why (You Can't Have Nice Things) Video (MV)

It seems like not long ago
Feels like yesterday
You gambled and lost all you've known
And me with everything
So this is why

This is why
This is why
This is why
You can not have nice things
This is why
You can't have nice things

You stood in a house of glass
Decided to throw stones
Then you lit a match to the gas
To see if we'd explode

This is why
This is why
This is why
You can not have nice things
This is why
You can't have nice things

Keeping my heart in a mason jar
Underneath the sink
Wearing your best dress to divey bars
The gods wasted taste on you

You sleep with your jewelry on
And garden wearing rings
If you wore your heart on your sleeve
You'd drop it down the sink

This is why
This is why
This is why
You can not have nice things
This is why
You can't have nice things

This is why
This is why
This is why
You can't have nice things
