I thought I was your light when yours went out
But you turned me off when you dragged us down
I taught you what love was, you showed me hurt
I gave you my heartache for all that it's worth
In my perfect world the stars shine for you and i
I was somehow forgetting, the past speaks in stars
And I'm somehow regretting what was never ours
I hope you know
I left you with memories, you left me this town
Where all that reminds me of you drags me down
I'll burn this to nothing, for you one day
Don't tell me I'm far better off without
Throwing your name down the road we turned off
Cause I burned down the bridges
I'm over them now with my feet glued to the ground
Do you plan to forget me
The way that I promised I'd never forget you?
Now I'm stuck inside with this, feeling sorry for myself
That you messed up and you're with somebody else
So don't come home
Cause I'm finally feeling okay here without you
We're better off alone
Together with you is just not where I belong
I'm done with writing songs about you
The worst of you is holding me back
These are my last words to remind you
That your name is just a mark in my past
Do you remember I painted the world with your name?
But you broke me and painted my heartache with pain
And I'm over missing that part of you now
I know you're happy with someone else somewhere, somehow
