Consider It Mutual

Every time I look around my name is on your lips
Every time I look around you're further away
Every time I look around my name is on your lips
Every time I look around you're fading, you're fading away

We taught you how to build an empire
You showed us how to tear it down
These past few years have changed my life
I won't give up without a fight

If it's true that I can be replaced
Why is it that I cannot be erased?
I can see that you're letting go (letting go)
It's kinda funny that you'll never know (never know)
I am already gone

You think you're justified
You're tearing down my dream
I think you're terrified
You lost your way

It's time you recognize somethings you can never fight
Will you ever learn?
When will you learn?

I'm making progress, I'm where I should be
I'll use the rage that flows through me

If it's true that I can be replaced
Why is it that I cannot be erased?
I can see that you're letting go (letting go)
It's kinda funny that you'll never know (never know)
I am already gone

I never ran away, it was more of an escape
Bitterness will plague your nights always
My story as told by you couldn't be more wrong
Just wait for the headlines, it won't be long

I kept your dirty secrets, your private life
You hide from all those who hold you up high
I don't need to hide behind a lie
If friends are friends for never
You were never a friend at all

We all know you're getting old
You should just let go
(Just let go) You can't keep it going
I promise you, you're coming down

Look at me and see what you could have been
Look at me and see what you could have been
