How sweet, tell me that you love me, then leave me.
You think I need you, well baby I guess you don’t see.
That even though the words you say are *never
gonna break me,
Even if you fight up a storm, you’re never gonna shake me.
No matter what you do,
I’ll live on without you.
Chit chat, talking all the ********
time.
Saying that you love me, then spitting in my eye.
Bitter words simmer on my tongue,
Betraying fool that said I was the one.

Cue the lights, pull the curtain,
Make it special, make it certain.
We are all gathered here today,
Because I have something to say

I’m done with your apathy,
And how you change it up and say you love me.
And broke me then went to her.
I’m done with your attitude,
Making me wanna hate you,
Because all of these feelings stir.
You say you want me then throw me on the ground.
But if it’s gonna be like that, I don’t want you around.
Keep talking.

You are so mistaken, you are so confused.
Making dumb complications and making me feel used.
I’m sorry I hurt your feelings, I didn’t expect it,
Now I’m trying to understand why it’s like this.
I figured you’d catch me,
Because you tripped me,
And I fell.
Now it’s so hard to talk to you.
Everything makes me confused.
We make a little improvement,
And we start this little movement,
We’re standing in a hallway,
A million miles away
From each other,
We take turns taking steps closer.
Here we are face to face,
Only separated with a little space.
I get excited and take two steps forward,
But you get nervous and take one step backwards.
Now we fight.

I thought you were the one for me,
But you've shown me how impossible that would be.
I'm not ready to say "I'm over you"
But I want to.

Forget it.
