Waking up right next to you is the last thing that I want to do
'Cause you're spineless and too much to take
My kindness was a big mistake and 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
(Or at least for tonight)
I'm drinking too much these days it never seems to help
(But there was nothing there)
'Cause you say I'll never change
And I'm the only one that 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 wanna 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 flawless and I'm not going to lose
To any of these games you play, no one likes you anyway
You're just a faceless name
When I tell you that your life's like a book
And it's torn and tattered sitting on a shelf
Where no one wants to look
(Where no one wants to look) 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 wanna know
Well I think that things are better this way
When it seems like you're breathing
But you're already dead to me
I think that was pretty good actually
