We were sitting at a cafe
|
You were listening like you had nothing better to do
|
You were feigning interest badly,
|
I guess interest is too hard for you
|
So I stopped talking, and just watched you
|
Watched the way your mouth made faces at me
|
Watched the way your eyes looked through me
|
Looking for something new you could take from me...
|
|
<CHORUS>
|
|
And I know what you are
|
You're the thief who steals from your friends
|
I know what you are and
|
Everything in the world does not belong to you
|
|
Everything you ever gave me
|
Were just scraps you didn't want anyway
|
All the people you discarded
|
Guess you never thought you might want them back some day
|
|
I've been loyal, I've been honest
|
Well, to tell you the truth, I don't know what for
|
I've knelt down with all the others
|
But I'm not on my knees anymore...
|
|
<CHORUS>
|
|
Last night, in the dark, in my mirror,
|
I thought I saw you
|
I threw the mirror on the floor
|
And it kept breaking and breaking and breaking and breaking...
|
|
<CHORUS> repeat
|
