lyrics

I held my breath (I let mine go)
Something close to death (I'm so alive)
Was such a fool to believe (You were)
That you would never leave (Never planned to stay)
Rebuild my walls (I tore them down)
And close my doors (should have kept them shut)
An enemy disguised as a friend (I do it well)
Until the bitter end (Only bitter for you)

You were just a mistake (you'd like to think so)
A promise that I'd break (you broke them all)
Given half a chance (no chances left)
I'd pass up on that dance (such fun)
The deeper I looked (you're blind)
You were nothing more than looks (turn away)
Now I feel at home
I'd rather be alone

All you did was lie (You lied to yourself)
Every time you cried (Never meant a thing)
Did we have a life? (Not for me)
Never ours for hours

Tore out who I was (You were never much)
Made me your cause (seek and destroy)
Without a shadow of a doubt (No shame)
It was murder of my heart (in the first degree)
Still so confused (Because you're dumb)
You broke all the rules (Because I'm numb)
Work to restore my faith (Give up)
That my life's not too late (You're done)

You were just a mistake (you'd like to think so)
A promise that I'd break (you broke them all)
Given half a chance (no chances left)
I'd pass up on that dance (such fun)
The deeper I looked (you're blind)
You were nothing more than looks (turn away)
Now I feel at home
I'd rather be alone

All you did was lie (You lied to yourself)
Every time you cried (Never meant a thing)
Did we have a life? (Not for me)
Never ours for hours

All you did was lie (You lied to yourself)
Every time you cried (Never meant a thing)
Did we have a life? (Not for me)
Never ours for hours
