Does it still make you sick
Every time it's mentioned that we use to date?
Are you holding your fist in a permanent clench
To what you gave away?
It never meant much back then
When you slept with all my friends
I got over it

Now that you're lonely in bed
And you're missing my hands
I'm supposed to give a shit?

Why don't you hold your breath
And wait for death to catch back up to you?
Yea, just hold your breath
Til there's nothing left and your face turns to blue
That's when I'll come back to you

It was all just pretend when you needed me back then
There's nothing good in you
I was caught up in your kiss
You were just itching for a fix
Your so-called better view
Renditions of the past kept us running on a gas
And i got burned
Pull me back and forth through hell
Like a pail into a well
Now it's your turn
To hold your breath
And wait for death to catch back up to you
Yea, just hold your breath till there's nothing left
And your face turns to blue
That's when i'll come back to you

It was on my front step on the night that you said the words that set you free
I had my chance to express all the hope I had left but I just let you leave
He let you leave
So now I'm wishing you the best
With the terrible sex you will have after me
I can still feel you scratch on the small of my back
I can still hear you scream

Why don't you hold your breath
And wait for death to catch back up to you
Yea, just hold your breath until there's nothing left
And your face turns to blue

It's just like love to come and ruin your parade
To take away the sunshine and usher in the rain
The very moment that you say it
You know it isn't safe
But safety is for suckers
Whoever wrote a song that way?
That's why I came back
Thank you for your time
It's been a long exhausting ride
Oh but i have had enough heartache to make me lose my mind
