New Years

Much The Same

I tore down masterfully constructed walls again

I've got some rebuilding to do

Brick by brick I'll try to put

Them each back in their place

And leave no window to see through

"It's 4:30 am on a Tuesday,

It doesn't get much worse than this"

I tried to be the kind of friend

I always thought you needed

And this is the thanks I get?

Do I care to take the time

To hear an explanation

Or an unbelieved apology?

I told you from the start

There's be no manipulation

And no psychology

Did you think that you

Could get away with using me?

And that things would turn out fine?

Well I've got news for you,

We all see through your little game

And you've lost again this time

And this time I won't cry

Cause you haven't earned it

And all your chances have been blown

And if you've treated everyone

The way you treated me

It's no wonder you're perpetually alone

I hope you learn your lesson now

But you can count me out
