He never believed me
My love for him always turned me back
Never listened when I said
I could handle anything except this

So many times, so many demands
Considerate in the touch
But time for others in my life
Not so much

Funny thing is I thought his music, his hands
Would be what carried my mind back again
But instead it's that
**** missing tuna can

Never understood what I meant
Or how it stole my trust
To exploit the good and bad
Anything that should have stayed between the two of us

But when the pain of staying
Exceeded the pain of loss
Then being without him became easier
Than I had first thought

Funny thing is I don't think
You could ever stop, could ya?
Always invoking enough guilt
As if I owed you that can of tuna

Of all the beauty I see in you
And the things with others never shared
I hope winning the hurting game was worth losing it all
Because I just can't take the pain
Can't take the pain
Anymore...
No matter how much I care
