about

originally written in 2011 for Day of Truth (year of lies)

written as me trying to explore the mind of an ex-girlfriend when she broke up with me

lyrics

V1, first half of the refrain, and V3 from the perspective of me
V2, second half of the refrain, and V4 from the perspective of my ex

Maybe it's time I should let go
well, I don't know
it's been a part of my life for sometime
I'm afraid to regress
I can't go on
there's an emptiness filling my heart
and I can't exactly replenish it
let me be

why won't you leave me
why won't you let me be happy
I did everything I could for you
just leave me alone
I don't need your misery
I'm going on without you
don't you pull me down
don't you crumble me apart

don't you leave me here
disposing of me like chicken bones
I'm not your toy anymore
maybe it's time we left

she's been clawing at my window
for days on end
I don't know why you left
well, it was for your good
you don't need to pay your dues
and besides, I don't know you
let's just listen to old records
and move on with your life

but that's the problem
your music conjures your spirit
I can't shun you
but I can't see you anymore
I'm some pathetic piece of shit
and you, well, you're you
have you done enough damage
have you already ruined my life

don't you leave me here
disposing of me like chicken bones
I'm not your toy anymore
maybe it's time we left
