Put your black shield down
I never even raised a hand
But I opened up my arms
and you stabbed

Oh, my friend
your visions are so wrong
you treat me like shit
so I've written you this song
Thank you for your half-assed time
You haven't given yours
so I won't be wasting mine

The song you haven't earned
thank you for the lessons learned
Not to get my hopes up
(The song you haven't earned)
not to be myself
Not to expect from anyone who only
(thank you for the lessons learned)
thinks about themself

I won't make excuses
for you anymore
I just won't miss you
when you're walking out my door

No cheap shots, nothing else
I'll just let you do that to yourself
