“Let's talk this over
It's not like we're dead
Was it something I did?
Was it something You said?
Don't leave me hanging
In a city so dead
Held up so high
On such a breakable thread”

-

What did I do to make you hate me like this? /

You push and you push, so now I submit /

You’ve forced me into an Oceanic abyss /

No amount of Prozac can get me out of it /

Right now, a kick in the teeth won’t go amiss /

Why don’t you push me into a spike pit / while you’re at it? /

Because you killed me with your poison kiss /

But fuckin’ me over was the worst crime you could commit… /

‘Cuz…

-

“You were all the things I thought I knew
And I thought we could be”

-

While you were fuckin’ me over, were your friends taking bets? /

I’ll make sure they lose all their chips /

Being with you is like playing Russian Roulette /

I feel like buryin’ the prick / who wrote this script / in a pile of bricks /

The burden I carry is larger than the national debt /

Fuck it, I’ll escape, set sail on this ship /

Nothing can fix this pain, not even Percocet /

It’s like I’m fighting a war, you’re a blood, I’m with the crips / …

-

“You were everything, everything that I wanted
We were meant to be, supposed to be, but we lost it
And all of the memories, so close to me, just fade away
All this time you were pretending
So much for my happy ending”

-

Everyone said our story was a fairytale /

But in reality, you’re just a witch offering an apple /

And like a twat, I took it like it was the Holy Grail /

Then you abandoned me at the Heartbreak Hotel /

You’re a disease invading / my veins /

You’ve activated my T-cell /

The reaction will be a 10 on the Richter scale /

Right now, I hope you’re on your knees in a Chapel /

Because I’ll dust myself off, I’ll prevail /

‘Cuz fuckin’ with me is like fuckin’ with the Los Zetas Cartel / …

-

“You've got your dumb friends
I know what they say
They tell you I'm difficult
But so are they
But they don't know me
Do they even know you?
All the things you hide from me
All the shit that you do”

-

I used to be Astrophil, you were my star /

Now you’re just “someone I used to know” /

The effect you had was bizarre /

It left me buried six feet below /

You left me with more than just scars /

I’ll mourn this like Brandon Lee in The Crow /

Get in the ring, let’s spar /

Or I’ll visit you like “The Raven” in Edgar Allen Poe / …

-

“You were all the things I thought I knew
And I thought we could be”

-

You’re factory-made, I’m bespoke /

I’m the bear you should never provoke /

‘Cuz if you do, you’ll be in danger /

I’ll chase you down, make like Freddy Kruger / …

-

“It's nice to know that you were there
Thanks for acting like you cared
And making me feel like I was the only one
It's nice to know we had it all
Thanks for watching as I fall
And letting me know we were done”
