lyrics

You make believe I'm something that I'm not
and pretend to hate me with a cause
I've been there a thousand times
I wish I could have made up my mind
to never let go of the ones who loved me most
But hey, life goes on, and I moved on alone

But who am I to think you'd hear the words I say?
You smile, nod, and say okay
but I know it doesn't mean a thing!

Your future speaks of unspeakable misery
it tickles your tongue with that perfect flavor
It fills your stomach with an unfulfilling fullness
but the aftertaste is purely bitter

And honesty is not enough to change your mind
So honestly I'm really not too surprised
when you give birth to all those stupid lies
and expect me to follow close behind

But don't let yourself be fooled, I don't need you in my life
you were never the source of my happiness, you only brought an emphasis
You don't define me any more than the death you speak steals my life
and here I am, I'm still alive

Your future speaks of unspeakable misery
it tickles your tongue with that perfect flavor
It fills your stomach with an unfulfilling fullness
but the aftertaste is purely bitter

You say you're scared to take a leap of faith
but what another foolish mistake you've made
You blindly jumped to another conclusion
What a foolish mistake to make!

If a friendship can die as quickly as a bullet takes a life
then I propose to you, my love, that it was never really alive!

Your future speaks of unspeakable misery
it tickles your tongue with that perfect flavor
It fills your stomach with an unfulfilling fullness
but the aftertaste is purely bitter

You are now far from me
and my world continues spinning
and ears fail, waiting for you to say the same
And now my loyalty to friendship has followed this to it's grave
and my ears fail, waiting for you you say the same

And now I wash my hands of this.
