I Swore it Wouldn't End Up This Way

I hope you're listening to that song
the one we loved to play
So you can hear those words
the ones I wanted to say.

I miss you, I'm sorry
please forgive me for this
I guess this note to you
is just another near-miss.

So I'll take one rhyme at a time
and hope you understand
I'll remember back to when you were mine
so I can remember who I really am.

Is love supposed to hurt this bad
or is this just another excuse
Am I just trying to leave you again
or am I just someone else you had to use?

So rock my world just one more time
throw away my heart's only key
Like you knew it would end up like this
all along you were just using me.

Lie again, right to my face
and I'll have another good reason
To hate you like you were so much better
like I needed you to lean on.

I'm scared to death
that I'm going to think about you
Again, and what hurts worse
is to know who.

Go ahead and leave me for her
take you're last chance carelessly
Don't say you've got to go now
stay a bit longer to hear me scream.

I blame that bullet in your head
just like I blame the knife in your heart
Even though I secretly blame myself
for turning your suicide into an art.

You'll always bring out the worst in me
so go ahead and let me go
I'll do the same for you
I just wanted you to know.
