[Verse 1]
You're so full of yourself
You had no room in your heart for anybody else
I was just another book on your shelf
Full of stories you never tell

[Pre-Chorus]
All I ever wanted was to keep you well
But it's no wonder why you fell

[Chorus]
You had to stare death in the face
Before you believe in a word I'd say

[Verse 2]
I forgave, but I didn't forget
How you put me out like your cigarette
You made me feel like the biggest debt
That nobody ever wants to collect

[Pre-Chorus]
What kept me so perplexed
Was how you took all that I said

[Chorus 2x]
You had to stare death in the face
Before you believe in a word I'd say

[Outro 4x]
Words I'd say
