I hear your disdainful words

And your disapproving tone

When I've barely even said

A word about it yet

You say that I'm so hateful

And you say that I am selfish

You say I am heartless

And then with that there's this.

How could you delude yourself

Into thinking that it's fine

I knew it years ago

But it seems that you're behind

Hide behind your lying smiles

And your "oh so proud of you"s

I know you'll love me forever

If I live the way you want me to

Would that I could, wish that I would

You see it and I know you do

But you just refuse to believe

What's right in front of you

I'm not quite sure where this went bad

From where we don't always get along

To I can't wait until the day

I'll never see your face again

Everything you ever wanted me to be, I am

Did my damnedest to be

Everything you wanted me to do, I did

Did my damnedest to do

But you reproach this one small thing

That won't fit the rules of your game?

All because you can't have everything.

For shame

And it's such a funny thing though

I saw this one coming

Sometimes I even think

That maybe it's a pity
