Our Place In This

This is for you, taker of three years of my life

All wasted, never to retain



I guess you thought my place was here

Groveling on my knees at your feet

With the blinders on my eyes

Only seeing the you that I wanted to see

You loved it when the opportunity came

To use those feelings at my expense

Pouring my heart out to you

I almost put the gun in your hand to kill me dead



But that's long since over, I've learned the truth

No hopes for reconciliation, you're as dead to me as I am to you



I should have told you off the first time you didn't show

Those feelings should have remained something that you didn't know

Now I stand here laughing at what you've become

To think you could rescind my ability to love



Life has been so much better since you didn't matter

I've got someone new who is so much better than you

I am loved unconditionally, something you will probably never know

When I was discarding the garbage in my life, you were the first thing to go

When your fan club loses interest, don't decide to change your mind about me

Because I just want to see your heart on the floor, crumbling apart

Consumed by sorrow

I want to see those tears I cried come from your hollow eyes



And with this, I bid all heartache farewell
