You keep drifting away
You're drifting away from me
I know your heart is set to leave
But your body lies next to me
I just became routine
And the space you need
Is growing in between
I can feel the distance now
You're pulling away from me
You keep drifting away
I keep hoping you'd stay
Picking myself apart
Wishing things were the same
But now that everything's changed
I've been wasting my days
Sleeping my life away
But I'm still seeing your face
I've got nothing to say
I know that you're bored
You remind me everyday
I know I've been short
I've got nothing to say

Your eyes only see gray
And I Lack the color you crave
I can't compete with what you think is good enough
I wish I could be
Just what you want
Working backwards to figure this out
I'm getting used to you not ever being around
I wanted you to know that I've been doing okay
At least most days
And you're the black cloud that hung over my head
Trying to bring me down with every word you said
You felt bad and wanted me to feel the same
I know you hate yourself and want someone to blame
And I was an easy target.
Your eyes only see gray
and I lack the color you crave
I can't compete with what you think is good enough
I don't want to be anything you want
Because that's not me
Molding myself to fit what you want
But everything that you need
Is everything that I'm not
And I've known this back from the start
Six years of growing with you
Six years of growing apart
Get out of my head
I just want to forget
How every minute spent with you
I felt I was better off dead
So I'll take a shot for you
While you take shots at me
Whatever helps you get to sleep
Whatever helps you get some sleep

You took the sand out of my hourglass
I sat and watched another hour pass and I'm
Still sitting on this curb
Reciting every word that you said to me
And I just need to get a grip
But I can't when your words relive themselves in me
I'm sick of losing sleep
I've been caught in your cycle
Tangled up in your web
You wouldn't let me go
Hollowing out all my insides
Now I'm a shell that feels nothing
With a heart of stone
And you thought that you were something special
But I only saw an average liar
You're a dime a dozen
A cheap script actress
A constant letdown
A fucking setback
And i know that you think you're cool
in front of your friends
And i know that you think you're cool
When you tell them every word that i said
I know you told them every word that I said
Let me hang up the phone
I don't want to talk right now
Please just leave me alone
We've got thing to talk about
You've always been the best at twisting my words around
So i've got to go
This is goodbye for now
I've been caught in your cycle
Tangled up in your web
You wouldn't let me go
Hollowing out all my insides
Now I'm a shell that feels nothing
With a heart of stone
You've turned my heart to stone
Now I never feel alone

I hope it's storming out
And you've got a long drive home
From where you've been drinking with your friends
Who aren't really your friends
So they let you drive anyway
And when your car slides off of the street
And your life flashes by I hope you think of me
And every time i caught you in your lies
But you would say trust me
Tell me where were you
When i needed you most
I would always catch you running around
I called out yo you
But I got no response
You always had ways of pulling me down
You're bringing me down
But I'm used to it
I can't believe I let you effect me like this
So I had to move on
Just like you did
Pushing myself away from everything you've ever said
I hope it's storming out
And you've got a long drive home
From where you've been drinking with your friends
Who aren't really your friends
So they let you drive anyway
And when your car slides off of the street
And your life flashes by I hope you think of me
And every time i caught you in your lies
But you would say trust me
You'd lie and say trust me
Just trust me
But I can't believe a single thing you say to me

So why should I invest myself in a liar
You had me fooled for quite some time
and I'm tired
I've grown tired
