You sat there waiting for me in the dingy cafe, You had pills hidden in your purse, I should have smelled the tainted smoke in your breath, This is all it's actually worth. My time I spend, each day I try To fix up this messed up life, While the pain never subsides. I was waiting for you at one time, I had believed in your sense of direction, Your understanding and convictions, All failed with but simple inspection. My life I lead, this whine and your greed, Pain in my heart with how you speak Like you're the only one I ever truly need. In the end I was looking for someone else, They were lovely, beautiful and smart, Kind to animals and fighting for causes. You know why I stopped waiting on you? Because that isn't the least bit of what you are...

You sat there waiting for me in the dingy cafe, You had pills hidden in your purse, I should have smelled the tainted smoke in your breath, This is all it's actually worth. My time I spend, each day I try To fix up this messed up life, While the pain never subsides. I was waiting for you at one time, I had believed in your sense of direction, Your understanding and convictions, All failed with but simple inspection. My life I lead, this whine and your greed, Pain in my heart with how you speak Like you're the only one I ever truly need. In the end I was looking for someone else, They were lovely, beautiful and smart, Kind to animals and fighting for causes. You know why I stopped waiting on you?
