lyrics

Is this the song you wanted, when I'm not around
Does it make you feel important, when it plays in your town
I can say what I want now, so sit yourself down
You didn't stay in my heart for too long
You just stuck around

I've never been good at letting go, when my heart excites with new lust
If it makes me smile and laugh well, of course then it must

Maybe this time you could tell I was standing too tall
Overcompensating love as if you knew I didn't need you at all

Is this the song you wanted
When I'm not around
Does it make you feel important
When it plays in your town
I can say what I want now
So sit your ass down
You didn't stay in my heart for too long
You just stuck around

You didn't stay in my heart for too long
You just stuck around

Now I sit at the airport, so proud and content
You send kisses and wishes, my god, oh, please give it a rest

I thought it meant something like giving a damn
Let you grasp my heart like you know who I am
Let you lie, cheat, love, mock all without being more than a bad friend

You said write me a song
So when it plays in your town
You can say, hey that's me, but I'm singing that
You let me down
You can say, hey that's me, but I'm singing that
You let me down

I never said I wanted love
You didn't either
Cross-country control was a bloody cold fever

I kissed someone else, and I think you should know
I only got hurt 'cause you didn't let go
Your hold wasn't kind or from any warm place
You're a cowardly boy and my biggest disgrace
