Lay in bed and watch the clock until the alarm goes off
Another sleepless night and this room is cold without you
I've felt so alone now for days on end, and it's not getting any better
If you were here with me tonight, I'd sing you a song so beautiful,
A story so tragic,
A verse so carefully constructed to win you over,
Gracefully rolled off the tip of my tongue,
and sent past my lips, softly to your ears,
As you gently brush your hair from your face,
and slowly fall asleep
Then I'd stab you in the back just like you did to me
So lead...me on
It's a slap in the face
and I can't tell you it doesn't hurt this time
I hope...you choke
On every lie you told me
While you're kissing him will he taste me on your lips
So throw the blame all around, point your finger at everyone but yourself
Don't worry sweety everyone feels sorry for you
If you never even cared at all, why didn't you say so in the first place
I can't believe I wasted all this time
So lead...me on
It's a slap in the face
and I can't tell you it doesn't hurt this time
I hope...you choke
On every lie you told me
While you're kissing him will he taste me on your lips
So it's over now
(Now...it's over)
You never cared at all
(You...you never cared)
Remember the night this all started...
because I do and I wish I could change everything
All those words of praise, and every wasted kiss
I take them all back, I take them all back
I see now you run at the first sign of danger,
and so this lone rose....it is for you
Grown from the blood you've spilled on the ground,
from all the ones that loved you so
Left unattended and pushed aside,
Watch it wither and die alone, the way you inevitably will one day
Watch it wither and die...
