I never wanted to

Say any of this to you

But you left me drowning

By myself in this abyss

You said you'd never do this

But your words are hollow things

And I should've learned by now

That you won't ever change the way you think

And more fool I

For believing that you might

Shall I polish your egos

Till they shine like diamonds

And your dirt sticks under

My fingernails?

I'm so sick of the blows

And I am done with trying

For imaginary sentiment

When all else fails

I give up! I give in!

I was always on the fringe

Looking into your little circle

If I stay here

There's no way for me to win

So I'm leaving your vicious cycle now

It doesn't matter anymore

Not like the way it did before

And if I really cared

I'd probably wonder if you'd notice that I'm gone

But if I were a betting girl

I'd bet you wouldn't

Was there ever a time

You thought to think about me

As a person

More than just your singing doll?

Was it such a great crime

To hope that you might care?

I suppose it was

I know you never cared at all

[Chorus]

Have you ever imagined

How the world might look

From underneath your shoes

To those you've trampled down?

That's a rhetorical question, honey

Please don't answer

I don't want to hear your voice right now
