Thank you unkind words
That killed it off
If I could rewind
I'd warn myself

You say I need
To find Happiness
So tell me why
You broke my heart

When this fleeting feeling leaves you
I'll regret that I forgave you
So I'll bite my tongue
And fill my mouth with blood
As I watch you pass me by

You say "You're right"
I already knew
Knowing you're wrong
Is nothing new

Treat me unkind
Is what I say
Without a word
It seems to me

Now that this fleeting love escaped you
I lament that I forgave you
I cannot bite my tongue
My mouth's too full of love
I do not want to pass you by
For refusing to simply play the fool, and to prove to be one
