I am just another fool And I have to keep telling myself that I am just a hypocrite And I have to keep calling you one And/'cause I forgot to bite my tongue As/and my assumption is the mother of all mistakes So/but I assume the role, Open my mouth, and clumsy words escape: So why you, wanna be there? When you could be here You are slipping away I awake with/to your replacement A bottle in my grasp In an unfamiliar place 'Cause you put me out The butt of your sick joke Into this ashtray life As you come and go 'Cause I forgot to service you And we broke down And you can't live with my mistakes So/but I assume false grace Open my arms And grasp at/for something true How are ya, how have you been Girl I miss you Wanna see you again Oh why ya, wanna be there? When you could be here Girl I'm slipping away I bring out the worst in you And you try to let me know You bring out the worst in me Anxiety, anxiety I'm trying to let you go You say I'm giving you the creeps So/but I assume the role, open my Claws And grasp for your heart How are ya, how have you been Girl I miss you, wanna see you again Into you, like a mortal stake So vindictive, girl I'm slipping away (Violins)...Into this ashtray life (Violins)...the butt of your sick joke (Violins)...I'm trying hard to let you go
