I never wanted to play make believe
I tried to stay within reality
And from a real young age
I learned to cope with pain
I never was the same
I didn't want you to be Superman
I only wanted you to hold my hand
I guess I asked too much
Or wasn't worth enough
But I kept faith because
You're supposed to love and protect me
(Sorry that I didn't turn out the way)
(That you wanted, but I just wanted you to stay)
You're suppose to love and accept me
(Instead I waited, wasting so much time)
(And without you, I really had to sacrifice)
(The part of my heart that believed dreams could come to life)
I played my part (I played my part)
You had my heart (you had my heart)
Believed it all would work out (I believed)
Without a shred of doubt (you'd be there for me)
But in your eyes (but in your eyes)
I couldn't fly (I couldn't fly)
Why wasn't I good enough?
Guess I just don't mean much
Is it too late
To quit this game?
Fill me with poison, make me numb
I don't care if my heart stops
Feed me your bullshit, hope it works
That's all you're fucking good for
Thanks for nothing, thanks for noth-
Thanks for nothing, thanks for noth-
Thanks for nothing, thanks for noth‐
Thanks for nothing, thanks for nothing
Should I apologize for giving up?
Should I be sorry that I've had enough?
Of broken promises
Excessive harsh judgments
And subtle rejections
Are you aware of what you've done to me?
Or are you so just blind that you can't see
The scars that you've left here?
Mutating into fear
Of people getting near
Why didn't you love and accept me?
(Sorry that I didn't turn out the way)
(That you wanted, but I just wanted you to stay)
Why couldn't you love and protect me?
(Instead I waited, wasting so much time)
(And without you, I really had to sacrifice)
(The part of my heart that believed dreams could come to life)
You had a chance (you had a chance)
I took it back (I took it back)
Why should I let you go free (I'm sorry)
When you can't stop hurting me? (You were the one who chose to leave)
Wish I was strong (wish I was strong)
Enough to hold on (I could hold on)
But the ache grows and grows
As long as I still can't say no
So you've got to go
Swallow your poison, just one gulp
I want you to drink it all
Have just a taste of what you serve
This is how bad your lies hurt
Thanks for nothing, thanks for noth-
Thanks for nothing, thanks for noth-
For nothing, thanks for noth‐
Thanks for nothing, thanks for n-n-nothing
I'm not too sensitive
And I'm not incompetent
You failed the job that you were meant to have in my life
No, I'm not incompetent
No, I'm not too sensitive
And if you really cared then you'd just say you're sorry
The saddest part is that you won't even hear this song
I wish that things had been different
But now I just can't leave it all behind
If I could heal the wounds within
Maybe we both could start again
For now I can't, my heart is cracked, so until then
Can't let you in, this is the end
Fill me with poison, make me numb
I don't care if my heart stops
Feed me your bullshit, hope it works
That's all you're fucking good for
Swallow your poison, just one gulp
I want you to drink it all
Have just a taste of what you serve
This is how bad your lies hurt
Thanks for nothing, thanks for noth-
Thanks for nothing, thanks for noth-
For nothing, thanks for noth‐
Thanks for nothing, thanks for n-n-nothing
