I’ll wait around until sunset for your call
For you to lie, to say
“I love you like nothing else”
Seeming to go from sinner to saint in seconds
So which is it anyway?
And who exactly do you think you are?
He called you to get this
Is it who I think it is?
I bet it is
I swear I’ll kill him
Oh, I forgot what you said about him
“…splintered, but focused still…”
Right
You’re built from distraction
About as good as gold
Brilliantly dull, you know
In my worst mistakes I had a better friend
Than I ever had in the two of you
So what is this to you?
I traded my life just for your confidence
And this is what you pull
Just pass the time, to cover you up
I attacked my lungs with lies
And made boring hours pass like regular days
All this while you were out and about
“I just don’t want a relationship”
But remember, you told them all I wanted it like this
Even when you knew better
They came to me
You would come to me
And still I ripped out my heart
…so you wouldn’t be bothered
For your sake I never made a scene
I guess your words came true…
“You can’t make a good thing last forever”
Tell them all that
Tell them of the empty phone calls
Your eyes closed on the other end
Still ignoring me again and again
The time I drove over in the rain
And you cried sorrow filled tears upon this shoulder
Just tell them and see what they say
The point we’re at now, something has to be done
I didn’t deserve this but you won’t hear me whine
At the end you’re going to hate him
By then these old four wheels will have me so far gone
Leaving the empty memory of you behind
The memory that reeks of uncertainties
I’m sure this is what he wanted to hear
I’ll please two of you with one stone
Here is everything you wanted to hear
You did make this hurt
But I’m taking my turn to leave
Drive by your house and wave
With only this left to say…
“Unlike you, I never hated you for what you were”
And this is one thing in my life
I can do nothing about.
