They all said you could be had for a song

Even when I'm alone I'm still the one who doesn't belong

Whenever we're together we just make each other feel more lonely

I followed you baby where'd you fall

That first step, that first night under your car

It's been downhill since then though

We were never that high to begin with

I don't know why I never replaced you

I promised myself I'd never follow through

So what's a man with a woman with a mission to do?

I tolerated every little bit of your shit

And as hard as I tried I still stepped in it

And if this is success it sure don't smell like roses

So why am I holding on so tight?

It just goes to show that schoolin' doesn't make you bright

It's so dark in here I can hardly find my way to leave you

I don't know why I never replaced you

I made decisions but never followed through

So what's a man with a woman with a mission to do?

And I could never break your heart

But maybe half would be the start

Why is it that I can't live without you?

Don't know why I never replaced you

I promised myself that I would

So what's a man in my position do to quit you for good?

I don't know why I never replaced you

I know what I had to do

So what's a man in my position do to see it through?

I don't know how I could have replaced you

I've lived my life full of regret

But somehow I don't think this is all we're left
