|
Waking up right next to you |
|
Is the last thing that I want to do |
|
Knowing you don't care |
|
'Cause you're spineless and too much to take |
|
My kindness was a big mistake |
|
It gets me nowhere |
|
And I've been reading through your letters |
|
Hoping you might never make up your mind |
|
And I, I wish I was a boy again |
|
Where I could still pretend you were mine (at least for tonight) |
|
I'm drinking too much these days it never seems to help |
|
'Cause you say I'll never change |
|
And I'm the only one who I care about when you say |
|
That you're leaving and you're ready to go |
|
'Cause you thought I was cheating |
|
But I don't think you want to know |
|
Well I think that things are better this way |
|
When it seems like you're breathing |
|
But you're already dead to me |
|
Making up my mind on you |
|
Is something I wish I could do |
|
But you're so damn thoughtless and I'm not going to lose |
|
To any of these games you play |
|
'Cause no one likes you anyway |
|
You're just a faceless name |
|
So what will you say |
|
When I tell you that your life's like a book |
|
It's torn and tattered sitting on a shelf |
|
Where no one wants to look |
|
And I'm sure |
|
That this is what we want |
|
As your face begins to haunt my memories |
|
And seep into my future dreams |
|
Where no one can hear you scream |
|
That you're leaving and you're ready to go |
|
'Cause you thought I was cheating |
|
But I don't think you want to know |
|
Well I think that things are better this way |
|
When it seems like you're breathing |
|
But you're already dead to me |
