I woke up

This morning

With an attitude

Looked

At the headlines

Put me

In a real bad mood

Sitting here in limbo

Trying to stay sane

Between the end

Of the summer

And the coming

Of the blessed rains

And I feel dirty

All the way down

I feel dirty, baby

Like this dirty town

I gave you everything

On a silver tray

Could have been

A fool forever

But I'm not made

That way

And after all

These years

I think it's time

To say goodbye

I'm doing you a favor

I will not help you

Live a lie

And believe me

If you think

I'm gonna catch you

When you fall

You don't know me

You don't know me

At all

I closed up the c**

Heard you confess

Baby, I knew better

But you were such

A pretty mess

You took

My breath away

Now I want it back

Ah

You should've

Killed me

You always looked

So good in black

And after all

These twisted roads

That we've been

Down together

I think it's time

To say goodbye

And believe me

You think

I'm gonna get down

And crawl

You don't know me

You don't know me

At all

Ooh, ooh

After all

These years

I think it's time

To say goodbye

I'm doing us

A favor, baby

You know

I cannot live a lie

And when you need me

And you think

I'm gonna be there

When you call

You don't know me

You don't know me

At all

You don't know me

At all

Not at all

You don't know me

At all

You don't know me

At all
