• I'm tired of lookin at you
    I let your picture fall from the counter
    I'm gonna drink myself to sleep
    Hold my head under water
    Don't bother to act like you're sorry
    I should've known it wasn't meant to be
    I give up on chasing after you
    I won't make love to a memory
    Call it the murder of a lucid dream
    I kick the open paint can
    Your name's graffiti on my chest
    I'm a bit more angry than I seem

    I bet you thought I'd be mature enough to handle this
    I bet you thought that I'd be fine

    (Chorus):
    I bet you never thought I'd write a song about you!
    I bet you figured I would just move on and everything would be okay
    I'm not as strong as you think I am- God damn!
    I just want out of this place
    Get out of my face
    I wanna hate you
    But I'm writing this ******** song because I don't
    I want to scream at you but I wont
    Give me a reason not to give up hope
    I bet you thought that I would cope
    I bet you never thought I'd write a song about you!

    I need an excuse. Just gimme a reason
    Why suddenly I've been torn to pieces
    Another opportunity gone
    This is a message with no reply needed
    I've been known to go to extremes
    And you say that's why everything goes wrong
    I have the worst ******** timing
    The both of us are such hopeless romantics
    You hate that I smoke cigarettes
    Nothing about us could ever make sense
    I wish I had some explanation
    I'm the worst monster that you've ever met

    I bet you thought I'd respect whatever you decided
    I bet you thought that I'd be fine (yeah, about that...)

    (chorus)

    I'm out of earshot/ Say you love me!
    I'm drunk enough/ to say it back!
    You've been known to swoon/ for a spectacle!
    I've been known to cause/ a catastrophe
    Read my mind it's on the wall
    Read my mind it's on the wall
    Read my mind it's on the wall
    Read my mind it's on the wall!

    I'm tired of lookin at you
    I let your picture fall from the counter
    I think I'll finally get some sleep
    Pull my head from the water
    Don't bother to act like you're sorry
    This is a promise I can keep
    I give up on chasing after you
    I won't make love to a memory
    Call it murder of a nightmare
    I've bathed in boiling water
    Your name's been washed from my chest
    and, to be honest, I don't care

    I bet you thought that I would be your slave forever
    I bet you thought that I would beg

    I bet you never thought that I would get over you!
    I bet you figured you'd always have me to fall back on in the end
    I'm much stronger than you think I am- God damn!
    I just want you out of this place
    Get out of my face
    And I don't hate you
    I'm just writing this song because I'm done
    Your memory's gone away with the rising Sun
    Give me your reasons that I shouldn't walk away
    I wont hear anything you say!
    I bet you never thought that I would get over you!
