You and None of Your Closest Friends

Spent so much time behind a pen and paper
Making sure that every word
Would come out right
Nearly a year ago when I found out you were leaving
Since then I haven't found the strength to fight
And our story changes every day
Nothing that I do or say
All for the childish games you play
When all is said and done I'll be the one to write the ending
That suits you best anyway

So keep your head from floating
Further from the ground
When no one will believe you and
Your schemes up in the clouds
So when the bubble bursts
And all you know is crashing down
All your closest friends
We won't stick around

Well here she goes stirring this shit up again
Just when I thought I'd find a peace of mind
But I couldn't stand the pressure from all her words
When they always seem to hit harder at night
You've given me my prison sentence
No suggestion for a penance
I can't keep your focus in frame
Expecting me to change my ways
Just to keep you free from blame
But that's hard when all we do
Is curse your name

So keep your head from floating
Further from the ground
When no one will believe you and your
Schemes up in the clouds so
When the bubble bursts and
All you know is crashing down
All your closest friends
We won't stick around

You're not so innocent
and you wonder why there's no one left
The trouble that you've caused should be giving you regret
You left a bitter shell
but I stayed true to myself
More than I can say for you when you're so fucking selfish

So keep your head from floating
further from the ground
When no one will believe you and your
Schemes up in the clouds so
When the bubble bursts and all you know is crashing down
All your closest friends
We won't stick around

We won't stick around
