Tell them what I did wrong;
All the hell I put you through.
How you left and had your reasons
But don’t forget to tell them about you.
Say I never really cared about us.
How there’s nothing that you could do
And how I never really made you happy;
But don’t forget to tell them about you.
About how I never took care of myself
And how I never could have improved;
That you had to make all the decisions.
But don’t forget to tell them about you.
When you tell them how hard you tried,
There’ll be no reason to believe it’s not true
Because oh-so-perfect you and all-to-nice me
Forgot to tell them all about you.

Tell them what I did wrong;
All the hell I put you through.
How you left and had your reasons
But don’t forget to tell them about you.
Say I never really cared about us.
How there’s nothing that you could do
And how I never really made you happy;
But don’t forget to tell them about you.
About how I never took care of myself
And how I never could have improved;
That you had to make all the decisions.
But don’t forget to tell them about you.
When you tell them how hard you tried,
There’ll be no reason to believe it’s not true
Because oh-so-perfect you and all-to-nice me
Forgot to tell them all about you.
