Don't try and make yourself hate him
He tried that one with you
He ended up just hating himself
And more in love with you
You'll have to learn from all his mistakes
The brain can lie but your heart will never fake
He's been rushing around
Grabbing all he can find
As quickly as he could
Cause he knew you would
When he saw that distant look,
He had to say goodbye
Cause he knew you could
People say that he's a bastard,
That's an unfair use of words
When I don't know what was going on, no,
I never really heard
Why don't you wake up to what he's got
Do you have the time to find out
If he's lost control?
There's no point in hanging around
If happiness can't be found, you'd better go
He never stopped to ask you why
He never had to try, well he was wrong
Why don't you wake up to what you want
And listen to his lines
Cause what you two have been going through
Has happened many times
I've never seen you taking any prisoners,
But I've seen you weep
Yeah, I've seen you apologizing,
But that's not gonna work with me.
I've heard you're telling everybody
What you've done to him
But that doesn't add up to a sorry
And it's not gonna work with me
He's been rushing around
Grabbing all he can find
As quickly as he could
Cause he knew you would
When he saw that distant look,
He had to say goodbye
Cause he knew you could
Why don't you wake up to what he's got
And stop filling him with lies
Cause what you two have been going through
Has happened many times
It's happened too many times
