Just a note: Although the clean version is the one on the page, the linked download is to the original version of the song. Also, the lyrics aren't censored, if you didn't already notice.

 

There's no point in hiding that this is an angsty breakup song about an ex who did a lot of good in my life, but also a greater amount of damage, ultimately. At the time I wrote this, these were my honest feelings.

About This Song:

[Lyrics]

 

Nobody ever said

Life was easy

But all I ever wanted

Was a hand to hold when the world fell down around me

I thought you were the one

Somebody I could count on in good times and bad

Now I see that was one sided

You only ever really wanted a pawn

Who could take everything thrown in your way

I let myself be blinded

I convinced myself the end was worth the means

Disregarding everything

That stood in between the two of us

And the feelings we shared

Or at least so I thought

Now I know that it was not to be

Though I always forgave you

It seemed that wasn't what you wanted

You could never forgive yourself

 

You taught me how to feel

You saved me when I thought I was dead

But with all said and done

All the pain that you caused

I never wanna see you again

 

Now years have passed me by

I clung to the past, such a desperate fool

Still have a box of your things

The scent makes me sick when I breathe it

'Cause it still hurts inside

I've claimed that I've let go

Put simply I lied

Because despite all of the constant anarchy

There were moments of pure and utter bliss

I could have bled and not cared

Now time has made me wise

I've not opened my heart to another

Don't need all of these fuckin headgames

I was better off the way I was before

That's what I tell myself

Really I'm still a fool

That's not wisdom, it's called being jaded

Petrified by sanity

Antisocial in reality

I can't get you out of my head

Life is a broken glass

You have to sift through the pieces

Eventually you throw it all out

But before the end

It sometimes can make up a whole

That you can put together again

 

You taught me how to feel

You saved me when I thought I was dead

But with all said and done

All the pain that you caused

I never wanna see you again

Never Wanna See You
