lyrics
I.
May Eighteenth was the day that it started
And by the time June Fifteenth had departed
All of the beautiful things that we started had gone away
You had an aeroplane ticket to ride with
Put all those stupid emotions behind it
Something inside you spoke up and decided to dislocate
I had a crush on you when we were younger
Broken in two by the spell that I'm under
All I can do now is sit here and wonder what I did wrong
Distance would never have made this thing harder
That was what I told you when we first started
Left broken hearted in places where there was just nothing at all
Don't understand what I did to deserve this
Wondering whether the good times were worth it
All of the love in my heart is dispersing without you here
Wishing that I had the courage to hate you
Want to go backwards in time and erase you
All of the places you took me are going to disappear
II.
I can't get over what I'm over with with you...
Blonde on blonde
My coffee date
Don't make me face the twenty eighth alone
III.
In response to the way you hurt me
You won't hurt me now
I've trained my heart to hate you
I've pulled your needles out
In regards to the way I loved you
I won't love you now
I've taught myself to loathe you
I'll never let it get this far again
IV.
I'm not some fucking doll for you to play with
I'm not some fuck you're going to forget
I'm not some fucking dream that you can wake from
I've got nowhere else to go, I'm stuck with this
Left with this
