There was a time, not long ago
You were around, my spirits low
I knew I’d never feel the same
You clearly said I was to blame
A little needle here and there
A little more, he didn’t care
Then I woke up, I couldn’t see
The person that I used to be
My arms are twisted
Won’t be missed at all

When I was down you wouldn’t call
You said “hello” and that was all
You made the world bow to your fits
And that’s the part about you
That I’ll never miss
So when my color’s bleeding through
You’re still the guy that never knew
I’m just the bargain that you blew

My suspicions start to grow
You say my feelings never show
Tipping toe around the glow
Is it all right for you to know?
Solitude misunderstood
The things I liked were never good
Contemplating things to say
I knew I had to get away
I’m better off without you anyway

When I was down you wouldn’t call
You said “hello” and that was all
You made the world bow to your fits
And that’s the part about you
That I’ll never miss
So when my color’s bleeding through
You’re still the guy that never knew
I’m just the bargain that you blew
