lyrics

I want to grow old
but not with you.
Don't want to grow cold,
bitter, and blue.

Last time you saw me,
I broke down.
The second I left
oh I tasted the ground.

Can't believe I actually thought
you were real.
For once in my life,
I had something to feel.

You didn't leave her
when I asked you to go.
The saddest part is
that she'll never even know.

You didn't feel the same
about me.
Think I couldn't see through
the lies in your teeth?

All you have is a bed
that lies on the floor.
Your pictures, your looks,
your shows, and nothing more.

Why do you still talk to me as if you were true?
Boi, don't you know I got better things to do?
You don't get the hint when I never respond.
Sending me those pictures like you got it goin' on.

So tell me, who's your next victim gonna be?
Does that only happen when you're taken already?
I moved out of the state, was that not enough?
'Cause even you can't pretend that that was really love.
