Now You've Been Told

There’s something I must tell you…


It’s like the breath of life
Stricken out of every moment.
I can’t believe this has happened.
To me, Life can only torment.

I thought we were set
And we were perfect
I guess I was wrong,
Who’d ever have guessed it?

We went everywhere together
We were quite inseparable
As we went to a movie or went to dinner,
What we had was quite amiable.

Then that one day,
I know you remember,
You were staring at him
That day in September.

You needed the restroom,
Said you needed to freshen...
Yeah, you left with that dude,
Death was all I was wishin’.

You never returned my phone call,
Your mom said you were out.
I thought about coming over
But I would only shout.

I actually waited by the phone,
Hoping that you would come to your senses.
But that apparently hasn’t happened yet
I’m beginning to think of us in past tenses.

It would not have been so bad
If you’d just have told me
But instead, you ran off,
For this, you have damned me!

I can’t get you out of my mind
It’s tormenting, evil and unsympathetic
I need it to stop now!
There’s only one way:
I hope I don’t regret it.

I picked up the phone
And guess who is on.
Its you god damnit!
Why don’t you go out with Don?

You know what you did?
I don’t think you do.
You screwed with my heart
And I want to shoot you!

But don’t worry,
You won’t get off that easy,
I want you to know the extent
Of what you’ve done to me.

After you hear this,
Maybe you’ll get it in your mind
Don’t screw with people’s hearts
Only now, do you wish you stayed mine!

Goodbye, goodbye forever
I’m feeling cold
This gun's getting heavy
Now you’ve been told.
