What Is Owed

Took a fall back when days were short
But I still think about it into the night
Never got the chance to love you good
But those exceptions made me hold on tight

Yeah I cried when you let me down
Spent a month trying to figure it out
Played around with pretending to hate
But best I manage is a backwards pout

When you remember my name
Do you feel sorry?
And would I feel the same
If I were in your place?
It's not hard to play the victim when your heart's the one that breaks
And it feels better to be justly proud
Than crossing over to the next part of your life which doesn't feature me,
I guess I'm happy that it all worked out

Told a lie back when time was short
And I wish I hadn't took it so far
Never got the chance to see you through
Still I know I left a scorching scar

Yeah you cried when I made it plain
And I don't know just how you'll figure it out
If I'm lucky you'll pretend to hate
Yeah, I hope that you scream and shout

When you remember my name
I wish I was sorry
Because I've felt the same
And now you're in my place
It's not hard to play the victim when your heart's the one that breaks
But now I'm stuck with one that's newly whole
I'm crossing over to the next part of my life which doesn't feature you
And independence seems a worthy goal

Break if off, don't look back
Don't attack her
Let it end, hit the light
Some things just don't turn out right

Break if off, don't look back
Don't attack her
Let it end, hit the light
Some things just don't turn out right

Break if off, don't look back
Don't attack her
Let it end, hit the light
Some things just don't turn out right
(What do I owe you now?)

Break if off, don't look back
Don't attack her
Let it end, hit the light
Some things just don't turn out right
(What do I owe you now?)
(When you remember my name)

Break if off, don't look back
Don't attack her
Let it end, hit the light
Some things just don't turn out right
(What do I owe you now?)
(When you remember my name)

When I remember your name
Should I make myself sorry?
And if I feel your pain
Will it redeem my sin?
I can't stop and play the victim when I've hurt you just the same
But still it's better if we both pretend
That crossing over to the next part of your life was just a load of shit
Instead of knowing that we ushered the end
