Tried to be your savior - but you called me your curse
And once we stopped our shouting is when things got worse and worse
Now I'm left here standing over all the things not left behind
When our common thoughts remind us of where we were at that time
When I think about us now, my memory nearly fades
Into the distant memories of all our escapades
It's anger now that carries me, but it's the truth that makes me bend
And why we part as strangers even when we act like friends
When you're finished with me you will write a song about it
And talk about my love and how you couldn't live without it
The story isn't mine to tell but I know I don't dare doubt it
So say a word of thanks to me in the place I once dared shout it
I will not seek redemption from this fate
We both did what we could, but now it's much too late
You tried to make me want you - but I never really showed
That I loved or knew you well enough to look that far down the road
For all your disappointments and for all the years I stole
I know that's how we found out what was out of our control
When you're finished with me you will talk to all your friends
And talk about your love and how it nearly always ends
The story's now in other hands, and who knows who pretends
Who sees things in the hidden world on which our world depends
