I can't always say just what I want to say
I'm out of place again, you're on my case again
Bringing up the past & sling it in my face again
Put me in the frame
So even if I win I lose
Going down slow ain't the only way to go

Listen to me honey, gonna tell ya something funny
Miss me when I'm gone you'll be the one to sing the blues

Seems to me the good times ended way too soon
Seems like faded echoes in an empty room
Strangers in the night, strangers in the light
Seems like every word we say just makes us scratch and bite
Thought we had the answers
Sure we couldn't lose
What you want from me
Is all the things that I can't be

Listen to me baby, I'm beginning to go crazy
Miss me when I'm gone you'll be the one to sing the blues

More I think about it, it's a goddamn shame
Opposites attract 'til they become the same
Daggers in our eyes, time to say goodbye
Time to stop pretending, time to stop the endless lies
I wish you luck, babe, I hope you find a dream and it comes true
What my eyes can't see don't make no difference to me

Listen to me faking, even though my heart is breaking
Miss you now you're gone, now I'm the one to sing the blues
