When you can't take any more
And you fall to my floor
And as you cling for dear life to these tired legs of mine
I will stare, of course I care
As I feel your body shake
And your spine bend and break
As your tears escape seal I forget how that feels
I'm elsewhere, but I swear
I'll be long gone
But I promise not to hold on
And I will pledge through song
That I will not be present
I'll reteach you a lesson
About becoming dependent on me
And I will stand beside the fact that I'll still
Play with my words before I eat them
And I'll be damned if I will ever like their taste
But I'll still repeat them
When you are broken and bruised
With only me left to lose
As I turn, walk away, you will hear me say
Now I know, well I told you so
As you pick yourself back up
Know I'll never call your bluff
You're still just as you were: a sad, lost little girl
Off you go and I'm slow
You'll be long gone
But I promise not to hold on
And I will pledge through song
That I will not be pleasant
You will not get my blessin'
And you sure as hell won't get to see me
And I will stand beside the fact that I'll still
Play with my words before I eat them
And I'll be damned if I will ever like their taste
But I'll still repeat them
Thanking me for doing half the job was your kiss of death
Until you're free I'd rather dwell on the past
Than come back just yet
I will write 200 songs
About the same thing if I want
But you will never hear them all, there will always be a wall
I miss us, and I miss our past
