The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Intro:

Go ahead and wager that you never listen to another song of mine. (haha)

I can't say I blame you either 'cause if you made records, you ain't gunna catch me listening to that shit.

But if you do, I just want you to know I didn't make this to hurt you.

Lord knows you done hurt enough.

Just, I don't know, try to make some real shit, you know?

Verse 1:

Bye, you ain't never gunna see me again if I can help it, little felon, take it easy,

Fresh out of force tears, kisses, and hugs,

You about to lose the company your misery loves,

I ain't never did nothing but try to cure your disease,

Atleast help the symptoms, instead you infected me,

I'm not the kind of man to draw a line in the sand,

If you gotta draw at all then it's time for you to scram,

P.S., you can keep all this shit,

and hang around your broke friends and call yourself rich,

The stugglin' I did with you was all for nothin',

It was never enough, your heart set on sufferin',

I admit that I was weak in the beginnin',

I wanted someone to need me instead of a friendship,

I didn't think I deserved a true partner,

So I transferred the arrangement I had with my mama,

Bridge:

Since you never listened to a word I ever said,

Maybe seeing this door slam will get it through your head.

I don't love you, I don't think I ever did,

And if you hadn't tried to kill me I'da stayed for the kid.

Chorus:

There's nothing more for us to say,

Got my mind made up, i'm walking away,

Sometimes we just outgrow the road that we play,

Hope you find a happy ending to your story someday.x2

Verse 2:

Round and round and round we used to go,

I never fucked you right, I made enough bread, I know,

If i'm such a bastard and mistreated you so,

Then how's it your losing your mind to see me go?

Truth be told, I held you together,

For all them years, and I cheated on you never,

Defended your honor, took in your mama when she tried to rehab and had to back through the drama,

You got a sick stone under your ribs, where a heart is supposed to live,

Sick, twisted, and vindictive, with your windows dim,

Baby you're not wicked hard bull fish, you must shiver,

How you threaten to kill the most precious, gift that you'll ever be blessed with?

And that shits twisted, demented, and depressed as shit,

And alone because you faithfully slayed your friendships,

Bridge:

Since you never listened to a word I ever said,

Maybe seeing this door slam will get it through your head.

You don't love me, I don't think you ever did,

And if you hadn't tried to kill me I'da stayed for the kid.

Chorus:

There's nothing more for us to say,

Got my mind made up, i'm walking away,

Sometimes we just outgrow the road that we play,

Hope you find a happy ending to your story someday. x2
