I've been told once or twice
that I should keep on being nice
but as far as I can tell
nice guys never win

I've been up, I've been down
I've been drunk and drugged
in this old town
but none of it compares to being
let go by you

I gave you my all
then we took the fall
you must have grown some wings
while you were down there with me

It seems like you are flying
while I'm in my bedroom dying
the blanket you made me
wrapped around my throat

Where did you go
where did you go?
You left me
you left me here to choke
on  all the words I wrote
You left me here to
choke
