I'm trying to sleep,
|
But this pain in my chest,
|
It's keeping me awake,
|
And every breath I take,
|
Feels like it's my last,
|
I want to be fine,
|
I want to be sure,
|
I want to be a lot of things,
|
And none of them include you.
|
|
I keep telling myself I'm not miserable,
|
I keep telling myself I'm better off without you
|
|
I believed that you meant everything you said,
|
Goodbye and thanks for the memories,
|
For the pain and lies
|
Every time I had to cry,
|
Goodbye and thanks for the memories.
|
|
I don't understand,
|
Because it doesn't make sense,
|
The way you broke it off,
|
Took away my heart,
|
Took away all my friends,
|
I want to go out,
|
And get out of this house,
|
But to begin again is gonna take more than I think I'd ever have to give.
|
|
I keep telling myself I'm not miserable,
|
I keep telling myself I'm better off without you
|
|
I believed that you meant everything you said,
|
Goodbye and thanks for the memories,
|
For the pain and lies
|
Every time I had to cry,
|
Goodbye and thanks for the memories.
|
|
I believe that I was so cleverly deceived,
|
By good looks, some charm, and a brilliant lie,
|
All the time that was spent being used I should have said,
|
Goodbye and thanks for the memories.
|
|
I want to know why you're such an idiot,
|
I want to know how you can even live with it,
|
I want to know why I should even give a damn,
|
About you missing me so terribly
|
|
I'm starting to sleep a little easier now,
|
Now that I'm over this,
|
And I've made up my mind to never fall in love again,
|
With someone like you, someone so confused,
|
I just wish I would have realized that a long time before I had...
|
|
I believed that you meant everything you said,
|
Goodbye and thanks for the memories,
|
For the pain and lies
|
Every time I had to cry,
|
Goodbye and thanks for the memories.
|
|
I believe that I was so cleverly deceived,
|
By good looks, some charm, and a brilliant lie,
|
All the time that was spent being used I should have said,
|
Goodbye and thanks for the memories.
|
|
I believed that you meant everything you said,
|
Goodbye and thanks for the memories.
