lyrics
When you lose a part of what you were,
And nothing ever seems worth while,
It takes a bigger person to walk away,
And raise a fake half hearted smile.
So when that arm comes around your shoulder,
From that friend you thought you knew,
Take a look and re-evaluate,
If she ever cared about you.
So let it hurt,
More than you've ever known,
And take the dirt,
You can do this all on your own,
You don't need no friends,
No part-time hallelujah,
To be tellin' you,
That everything'll be alright.
It's always the ones you love the most,
Those whom you've shared a bedroom floor,
You can always count on me when you need it,
I'd never touch no man of yours.
And after months of strained normality,
That turned out to be a lie,
Secrets kept a secret swept away,
They've introduced it to your life.
So let it hurt,
More than you've ever known,
And take the dirt,
You can do this all on your own,
You don't need no friends,
No part-time hallelujah,
To be tellin' you,
That everything'll be alright.
You thought you could trust her skin,
No, no, no,
All those good times and laughs that have been,
No, no, no.
She didn't think you'd ever know,
No, no, no.
She didn't give two fuck about how this could go,
No, no, no.
So let it hurt,
More than you've ever known,
And take the dirt,
You can do this all on your own,
You don't need no friends,
No part-time hallelujah,
To be tellin' you,
That everything'll be alright.
So let it go,
Don't let this dictate your days,
And I hope you know,
That karma bites in different ways,
You don't need no knife,
Stuck between your shoulder blades,
To be tellin' you,
That everything's not alright.
