mean Lyrics

There's parts of it all that I can't shake still

It's difficult for me to understand why

I've been so concerned about how you'd feel

I almost forget that you ruined my life

And I know that it sounds so mean

God I never thought that I'd say it

I waited too long to get clean

'Cause I can't seem to keep you nameless

It took a man

To understand

The boy of it all

You forced my hand

You wrecked our plans

And left me feeling at fault

There's parts of myself that I don't like still

I hate every bone that you second-guessed

Nothing about us had ever been ideal

But I can't get this paperweight off of my chest

And I know that I made it seem

Like I'd never been impatient

I know that it sounds so mean

To say it was all time wasted

But it took a man

To understand

The boy of it all

When you forced my hand

You wrecked our plans

And left me feeling so small

I never once

Threatened to leave

But you used to hide

Just to be seen

So now when a man

Gets closer to me

I'm scared of the boy who loved to be

Mean

Why were you so mean?

Mean to me
