You don't know what you're doing, you're going backwards
The rings around your eyes are only getting blacker
You wear an X on your hand I've got one in my hand
Burning me inside, wishing you were dead
Easy to see your life is only for the taking
You were doing what you did my heart was breaking
It broke, you fucked up real bad
You failed to know just what you had
You needed me
But you left me
The hell alone
It has to be
And you get
What you give
You're just so
Deceptive
You don't like how we left it
'Cause in the back of your head
You regret things that you said
Apology accepted
Didn't know you're bluffing
I thought that I'd feel something
But with you I felt nothing
It's too convenient just to say you didn't notice
Your life is upside down and always out of focus
You're like a hypocrite you swear you never lie
When things revealed themselves you should be doing time
Fucked up big time, crossing lines
That's what you do and then you do it all the time
Do you remember how you treated me
The shoe is on the other foot and now the blind can see
You needed me
But you left me
The hell alone
It has to be
And you get
What you give
You're just so
Deceptive
You don't like how we left it
'Cause in the back of your head
You regret things that you said
Apology Accepted
Didn't know you're bluffing
I thought that I'd feel something
I think you failed inspection
Apology Accepted
You've got a knack for lying
Talking loud and then hiding
But now look see who's smiling
Me motherfucker! And it feels great!
It's just a matter of time
Before you fade away
And I know you're sorry
And you want to call me
Just to tell me
But it's too damn late
You're full of empty gestures
You're non-essential
It's inconsequential
'Cause you choose your fate
Your life's a car crash
You shoot your mouth off too fast
Who knew it would be me
With the last laugh
Hahahahaha, yeah
You like to fuck with things and say it didn't happen
But I was there your bullshit keeps me laughin'
How do you sleep at night with all your lies?
Piling up like parking tickets you don't pay the fine
You don't like how we left it
'Cause in the back of your head
You regret things that you said
Apology Accepted
Didn't know you're bluffing
I thought that I'd feel something
I think you failed inspection
Apology Accepted
You've got a knack for lying
Talking loud and then hiding
But now look see who's smiling
