I Don't Want to be Lachrymose

I don't want to be lachrymose
But you've got my tears flowing
I don't want to be morose
But my misery is growing

You broke my heart
Causing coronary pain
And my life will now be desolate
For alone I will remain
You accuse me of hyperbole
You think I'm exaggerating
You say "Don't be so lugubrious
We weren't even dating!"

I don't want to be lachrymose
But you've got my tears flowing
I don't want to be morose
But my misery is growing
