Lyrics

I remember when it was you and I on that planet of ours.
You were tending your scars, and I was tending you.
Gut punch, words hurt, lungs and muscles already affected;
Already tense and protective. I'm still wary, it's true.
And you can go off and start running your mouth,
But the second you go, all the things that I thought I knew,
Were counterfeit efforts to make you look good,
I'm out with the bathwater, misunderstood by you.
I remember when the praise that I got was met with passive aggression
Dressed up like affection with a funny hand.
Too close, run away, choose the safest exit for all your feelings.
The taste is so unappealing, just like it was planned.
And you can go off and start running your mouth,
But the second you go, all the things that I thought I knew,
Were counterfeit efforts to make you look good,
I'm out with the bathwater, misunderstood by you.
Now I'm an excuse to get out of the life
That no longer worked for you, but I don't like to be used.
So you can go your way and I can go mine,
It's better this way and I'm wishing the best for you.
