You Don't Say That - Free Throw

Everything that was said

Was indefensible in my head

An ill-conceived attempt

At some dreamt self-validation

Not based at all on the bed that we had laid in

And I won’t forget your face when I said…

«I thought I’d need you

The way you said you’d always need me

Now I see through

Everything

Everything»

If opaque was the word that you would use

When it came to my views

I guess the term «best friends» wears off like a bruise

Is that the truth

Or am I just getting used to it?

Is that what we do

When the grip of love is loosening?

I’ve tried to make amends

With intentions to be friends

But you told me hollow compliments

Meant a definite end

I burned all of the pictures in my closet

If there’s a piece of mind to find in this, then I have lost it

It’s gone

It’s gone

It’s gone

It’s gone

Everything that had been said

Was indefensible in my head

It was an ill-conceived attempt

At some dreamt self-validation

It’s no use

It’s no use

It’s no use

When the grip on everything we had has loosened
