lyrics

I keep falling down on you, and theirs nothing I can do anymore
Every day ends in a fight, every night I see the light.
We can't do this anymore.

10 years ago I wrote those words, in the wake of my first broken heart
At the hands of another girl. Change the lyrics but keep the chords.
Cause I don't care about that girl anymore.

I never see you anymore, I get the body but your mind is checked at the door.
All the time your texting him, I'm starting to feel like this is a fight I cannot win.
You kiss him everything is fine, but if you kiss me you always end up crying.

Is it wrong to wish him ill? If he was dead maybe then I could keep you.
We both know that's not how it works, if it wasn't him it'd be another skinny jerk.
I don't have much left to lose, we both know I've already lost you.

So I spit a curse or two. And then just go back to my room.
Take up the guitar sing some stupid rhyming words. That 15 year old kid, didn't know hurt.
