We were best friends, destined to learn each others lessons
You called with a question and I ignored your message
Tension sets in and I can say that since then
At 10:14 PM I finally regret this
Cried for your attention
Blew out your birthday candles
Threw my toys when I was mad
The worst way to handle it
When you told me the dog died
But I let him out without a leash
And didn't tell you to avoid being hogtied and beat with reeds
I told you the wrong lies
Said the truth too often
Though the other boys were good
I never threw caution
I locked you out of your bedroom
And hid the key under the door
Thought I was smartest guy
And never really wanted more
I drew disfigured pictures of you
In odd and screwed up ways
With the same blue markers on the wall
Where I drew my name
Cheated in board games
Never liked to play fair
Made fun of you at daycare
And told you I can't Share
I forgot to get a gift
Never called on Christmas
Made jokes at funerals
Never sweated the little shit
Tore pages out of your journal
By the way, I unlocked your journal
Now there's a bit of an awkward turtle
Disobeyed the doctors orders
I punched holes in your walls
Shattered your painted windows
Hid in the shower for several hours
Till you made the amends grow
I walked all over you
Told you that you weren't pretty
Of course, I'll be damned if I ordered you
To stand where you were sitting
I peer pressured you
Even though I wasn't your peer
Pulled down your curtains
So respect would disappear
Said I was going one way
But then I'd go another
Turned my back on you when you
Acted like my own mother
Promised I'd quit smoking
You asked me to quit joking
Told you you were adopted
You cried, and told me to stop it
I made your computer crash
Deleted your photographs
Scratched all your records
Never paid you back for the load of cash
I took off without you
Constantly pushed you away
Kept secrets to myself
But then I'd ask you to stay
I put As on the back of your shirt
So you can see where it actually hurts
Blamed you for attacking me first
Told you that you're asking for worse
Things to come
I bleed your blood
I need your love
I keyed your truck
Wasn't afraid to fight back
Never got on the right track
Turned your eyes black
When I gave you a hard slap
I dragged your ass on the carpet
And gave you bad rug-burn
Showed the skies would darken when I
Said I don't love her
We were best friends, destined to learn each others lessons
You called with a question and I ignored your message
Tension sets in and I can say that since then
At 10:14 PM I finally regret this
I decided to steal your money
Gamble it all away for good
Then I had you bail me out
Just because I knew that you could
Vandalized your village
Tantalized you and pillaged
Slowly ripped out your wallpaper
And Turned the water to spillage
Smashed your mirrors in
Then I Crashed your American
Car, that I borrowed without asking
For your parenting
Cut off your hair while you slept
Slashed your clothes into nets
Sold your house and your belongings
Till you had nothing left
Everything was your fault
Cause I didn't carry a heart
Then you took the blame
I didn't know where to start
Constantly called you stupid
Even though you were always smart
Stopped calling you by your name
We were only falling apart
I ignored you on one condition
To further my own position
Avoided eye contact to put
You in a cold submission
I tripped you until you fell
Bruised your arms and legs
Held you down and tied you up
And made you fall again
I cut off your air supply
Kept you underwater
Held you back, and weighed you down
So now the space is larger
I spit in your face and called you a whore
Chose to hang out with a girl
Instead of you, so I guess you have the right to say that now it's war
Tortured you with a lighter
Pushed you off the roof
I stabbed you with a box-cutter
Buried you with the truth
Pretended it never happened
Wiped my hands clean
Gave it the cold shoulder
Cause I don't owe a damn thing
Stuck to my resolutions
Smiled everyday
Read the paper in the morning
Survived in many ways
Stole your identity
And achieved serenity
I left the rest of me
Deep inside your memory
Started a new life
And forgot what you meant to me
Chorus
