as my five o'clock shadow?
can things change this fast?
the one that you wanted is past tense
at present my presence no longer makes sense
at present you're too tense

now i never said "i'm the be-all and end-all"
but you had to end it all, as soon as you'd seen more
i never said i was worth less or worth less or worth more

does it have to be this ugly?
it's not like i stole your possessions or money
things change this fast
the one that i wanted is past tense
at present your presence no longer makes sense
at present i'm too tense

but you'd know it
you'd know it all

now i never said "i'm the be-all and end-all"
but you had to end it all, as soon as you'd seen more
i never said i was worth less or worth more
