I guess it was supposed to be perfect
But I can't remember now
I just know, when you were getting rusty
That's when I started moving out
I lined my boxes with linen
And listened
to you scream
You wanted to be forgiven
I didn't want
to be seen
And though you wanted me near you
I couldn't stay
around
With all your half-hearted values
Strewn upon the ground
CHORUS
And if you're feeling lonely now
I guess that's probably your fault
And if you're feeling sorry now
I guess that's on your plate
And if you're feeling desolate
Then, I guess I can't help you
It's not in me to comfort
When my life's gone down the drain
I guess I wasn't
supposed to get angry
But I didn't want to cry
And I know something
started building up
Each time you tried to lie
Your bottom lip would start shaking
Your eyes would shrink and I
I'd leave my give for the taking
And opened my arms wide
I tried to swallow your aching
But I went belly up
And your control was painstaking
But never strong enough
CHORUS
And if you're feeling lonely now
I guess that's probably your fault
And if you're feeling sorry now
I guess that's on your plate
And if you're feeling desolate
Then, I guess I can't help you
It's not in me to comfort
When my life's gone down the drain
Well, sometimes
I feel insensitive
When I'm watching the road go by
I get to feeling
pensive and
A part of me wants to die
There's a part
of you in memory
That dances in my dreams
Your tiny eyes,
your shaking lips
And your quickly breaking seams
CHORUS
And if you're feeling lonely now
I guess that's
probably your fault
And if you're feeling sorry now
I guess that's
on your plate
And if you're feeling desolate
Then, I guess
I can't help you
It's not in me to comfort
When my life's
gone down the drain
