lyrics

On the last time we met, your love was dead
You held my hand, bit your tongue
Shut me out, spilled my blood all around

Yea it wasn’t easy to be happy for you
Yea I took the poison praying you’d feel it too
You held your punches back and I left the room
Yea it wasn’t easy to be happy for you

All alone, you always felt
We dragged you down, gave me hell
Made your bed, now you sleep
On your own, guess we’ll see

Yea it wasn’t easy to be happy for you
Yea I took the poison praying you’d feel it too
You held your punches back and I left the room
Yea it wasn’t easy to be happy for you

I know that you tried
But you were no friend of mine
Fallin’ apart
You played it the best, a dame in distress

Yea it wasn’t easy to be happy for you
Yea I wrapped my neck and prayed that you’d feel the noose
I saw the restaurant, table for two
Yea it wasn’t easy to be happy for you

Yea it wasn’t easy to be happy for you
Yea I took the poison praying you’d feel it too
You held your punches back and I left the room
Yeah it wasn’t easy to be happy for you

Yea
Yea
Yea
