Remember what I said
I said to you that I would never leave
I said I'd always be there when you needed me
Leave me here to grieve

Yeah, you're happy, so you say
It could all be better
I am useless half the time
I know I could be better
I know, I know, I'm not the greatest person—although
I'm sure I'm not the worst
I will, I will, I will be there when the mountains fall
I will be there first

What was it that you said?
You told me you'd always be there for me
And what was it that I knew deep down the whole time?
That you'd destroy me

You said once you would be happy with me
Oh, but it could be better
You told me once what I meant to you
But you always knew that you could do better
I know, I know, I'm not the greatest person—although
I'm sure I'm not the worst
I will, I will, I will be there when the blood runs free
I will be there first

I will still be there
Although I owe you nothing but to pay back
Years of burning pain
I will be there
I'll be there when no one else can stand you
Colder than the rain

Oh, why the fuck do I stick around
All you do is knock me down
You like to rub it in
Rub it in that I still stick around
You like to
Kick me
While I'm down
And all I do is lie there and take it
You know that when I smile I don't fake it
I love you
But I hate who you are

I know, I know, I'm not the greatest person—although
I'm sure I'm not the worst
I will, I will, I will be there when the water screams
I will be there first

Remember what I said?
I told you that I'd never let you down
But I knew that if I didn't die from loss of blood
Surely I would drown

Yeah, you like to watch me bleed
Because it could be better
You break my heart and then resuscitate me
So you can kill me again and do it better
I know, I know, I'm not the greatest person—although
I'm sure I deserve this curse
I will, I will, I will come back when you need a fool
So do your worst
