Drive Away Lyrics

I've always known that I'm just one man

And I've always known that I'm all alone

This weight that I carry breaks my hands

But you never cared about these bones

You only

Wanted to keep me so no one else could

As a man in a house in a bad neighborhood

I'm no king, I'm a pawn.

Guess I misunderstood

I'm a shoulder to cry on

When life isn't good

Just a way to tell people you're not such a tragedy

A trophy to carry and brag to your family

A ring for a life that she wanted aesthetically

I asked for a bride, she said "yes" for a registry

Tell me another damn lie

Tell me that we could have tried

Tell me you wanted a life

With me and not any damn guy

Pretend you don't want me to go

Pretend you've got no one to get with

Pretend I don't already know

He's waiting outside in his Civic

You're pissed that I'm saying "goodbye"

Realize we got worse by the day

Admit that you'd rather I die

Than live to see me drive away.

I wish that I never went out in the snow

And I wish that I just spent that New Years alone

I wish that you never saw me when I cried

Every single "I love you" was always a lie

You're a monster!

Living inside of my head

You're a monster!

Letting him into my bed

You're a monster!

Everything that you said

You're a monster!

We should have never been wed

You think that I'm the only one to ever break a heart?

You think it's only you that's leaving with some fucking scars?

You think this shit is easy? Training wheels and handle bars?

No, if you want to see me, you can find me in my car

Maybe I'm the one to blame

Or maybe I just killed the flame

But you're the one who's playing games

Tomorrow you'll forget my name

And take me out the picture frames

Start going by your maiden name

Then try to call me back again

And never take a breath of shame

I'm glad that you're happy, and single, and free

But if that is the case then stop asking for me

You're just mad that without you I finally see

That when I am with you it's only agony

Tell me another damn lie

Tell me that we could have tried

Tell me you wanted a life

With me and not any damn guy

Pretend you don't want me to go

Pretend you've got no one to get with

Pretend I don't already know

He's waiting outside in his Civic

You're pissed that I'm saying "goodbye"

Realize we got worse by the day

Admit that you'd rather I die

Than live to see me drive away

I want to be sorry, I swear that I do

But for 5 fucking years I meant nothing to you.

I hate you inspired the words to this song

But maybe with this you'll admit when you're wrong

I hate that I met you

I hate that I stayed

I hate that I feel like I'm running away

I hate that I held you

I hate that I touched you

I hate that I fell for the sickening lust too

I hate that I cared about any part of you

I hate that my happiness always would crush you

I hate that I realized how much I misjudged you

But what I hate most is

I hate that I loved you!

Tell me another damn lie

Tell me that we could have tried

Tell me you wanted a life

With me and not any damn guy

Pretend you don't want me to go

Pretend you've got no one to get with

Pretend I don't already know

He's waiting outside in his Civic

You're pissed that I'm saying "goodbye"

Realize we got worse by the day

Admit that you'd rather I die

Than live to see me drive away

Admit that you'd rather I die

Than live to see me drive away
