lyrics

I did all his bidding,
But I still knew the taste of the floor.
No doubt he liked hitting;
No need to even keep score.

I think of that kid then
And why he couldn’t just run out the door.
It’s me I’m still kidding,
And I can’t do this anymore.

Façades are important,
Our house always looked like a home.
But wave goodbye to comp’ny,
Then steel wrench against collar bone.

This is not a eulogy,
I’ll be as petty as I fucking please.
He was a pile of garbage,
And just singing that gives me some peace.

Some wounds heal funny
And some don’t heal at all.
But despite all the hurtin’,
I’ve decided to change how I fall.

Now that’s done,
I’ve done gone.
Yeah, I’m done,
Done and gone.

After all, I’m still alive.
Even though, I didn’t give myself five.
Look at you – sympathy for one!
I don’t need you, I am done and gone.

After all, I’m still alive.
Even though, I didn’t give myself five.
It’s not a matter of who lost or won.
I was there then, now I’m done and gone.
