lyrics

so listen up this is hard to say
and I would rather not repeat
the things I have to get throgh to you
are eating away at me

a friendship is built on trust and respect
and you had neither to spare
so I cut the ties ignored the lies
and I walked right out of there

I realize that what you did
had no intent to maim
but I have got to look out
for myself sometimes
and I know you’d do the same

I was one set back from a full breakdown
and that glitch turned out to be you
so I ran away never to speak again
it was all that I could do

and I’m sorry for my timing
you know I can’t tell you why
that moment in time
I felt like I wanted to die

I was sick of being lied to
nothing new at the time
I’m done with you like I quit the booze
it saved my life

I know you think that I’m a dick
and on some level you’re right
but you invaded my space
threw it right in my face
you were looking for a fight

I’d asked you not to come around
but my warnings were in vain
so I decided right there
to set myself free
you will never see me again

and I’m sorry for my timing
you know I can’t tell you why
that moment in time
I felt like I wanted to die

I was sick of being lied to
nothing new at the time
I’m done with you like I quit the booze
it saved my life
