| 80 proof is no excuse,
|
| an apology so insincere,
|
| out of your mouth,
|
| we sing out loud for everyone to hear.
|
| (and I heard)
|
| But in my own defense,
|
| I feel I’ve been more than patient,
|
| the one thing that I can’t stand,
|
| is the fact you show no remorse or class,
|
| enough to own up to this mistake.
|
| (it's your mistake)
|
| Words fell short,
|
| as your lies grew stronger
|
| and through it all I always loved her
|
| when you think things are getting better,
|
| remember we’re best friends for never,
|
| because of this I’m so much stronger,
|
| took a while but I moved on,
|
| so when you think things are getting better,
|
| remember we’re best friends for never.
|
| Don’t initiate a conversation,
|
| that instigates a confrontation,
|
| I found a new best friend in hatred,
|
| that says it’s too damn late to save this,
|
| you’re so good at making bad decisions,
|
| but even better at burning bridges,
|
| knowing everything that I know now,
|
| I never would have put the fire out.
|
| I’d rather watch you choke on the smoke,
|
| from the flames,
|
| until I know that only ashes remain.
|
| (ashes remain)

|
| When I gave an inch,
|
| you’d take the mile,
|
| if I gave it you’d take it,
|
| you claim to be the story,
|
| and that’s all you’ll ever be,
|
| just a page in your own diary,
|
| that ain’t that great to read.
