Did you think it wouldn't show
You're here with me, but I'm so alone
And now this house don't feel like home
I can't believe how much we've grown
So far apart, so far away
You just can't hide something as plain as day
I think it's safe to say
That's it's just no good
And I don't need you in my life
The way you cut me like a knife
You burned me once, but now that it's done
You'll never burn me twice
Now that it's all been said and done
Do you like what you've become
Now that it's all but over, you haven't changed
And what a shame
I know you think you're always right, and just because
You've got God in your life
But he don't appreciate the way you lied
He can't believe how hard you tried
To take me down, to take it all, hanging around
And making sure I fall
Then say it was me to blame, and I was
For trusting someone like you anyways
And I don't need you in my life
The way you cut me like a knife
You burned me once, but now that it's done
You'll never burn me twice
Now that it's all been said and done
Do you like what you've become
Now that it's all but over, you haven't changed
And what a shame
Now that it's all been said and done
Do you like what you've become
Now that it's all but over, you haven't changed
And what a shame
And I don't need you in my life
The way you cut me like a knife
You burned me once, but now that it's done
You'll never burn me twice
Now that it's all been said and done
Do you like what you've become
Now that it's all but over, you haven't changed
And what a shame
Now that it's all been said and done
Do you like what you've become
Now that it's all but over, you haven't changed
And what a shame
