I Metherfor

Tears run from the woman on the wail

That ink was never pressed

For her to sob for you, this room's obsessed with darkness

The countless strokes of crayon that I helped you create

With that blade now to her chords

Now I'm in her place

So let me take these photographs, box them up and bury them in the back

You're gorgeous, photogenic, these negatives come out faded

I see you're the new artist

I'm recluse and you're thoughtless

Ironies at best, when it's not you I stress the rest

I'm pacing back and forth

I'm blowing out smoke

I hate this glimmer of hope

One day I'll choke, mess this up and croak, with nothing left to say

Please don't look at me, for your eyes deceive me

I knew you believed me, but I never thought that you would leave me

You're so contagious, please don't go

I'll let you change me, for your love

You're worth the wait and I should have known

I'll let you change me, for your love

I know you

You know me better

Yeah, you're so clever

I always let her get the best of me

We're breaking out of our shells

We never kiss and tell

That's how we roll, that's how we do things

Just a bit of some class, this mess is all the past

We laid tied to the tracks for your train

We never compromise to sing the same lines

Let's hurry and end this song, before we have a nervous breakdown

You weren't the comeback

You weren't the one that

I called it

So how can I put this

Oh, I'm sorry to inform you

You've been left behind, down the path you wouldn't have had

You wouldn't have had without me

So let me break this down for you, gentlemen

She doesn't want you

Chivalry is now a waste

We now accept she's fashion trend

You're so contagious, please don't go

I'll let you change me, for your love

You're worth the wait and I should have known

I'll let you change me, for your love
