I had it wrong for so long in my head I was walking around like I was dead And all the time my mind was stuck on you And I clawed, while you stalled I was a fool to think we were involved I guess I needed to believe it, so bad Rejection never felt this good Everything unclear, now so well understood At first I didn't see it as kind But you did me a favor when you left me behind You might not believe it was true It's all those things you never said that told me all about you It's the things you try to conceal that get revealed And I had to get it wrong before I had got it right And I'm not the kind to argue, I'm not the kind to fight By the time I'd reached the truth I'd reached the end Rejection never felt this good Everything unclear, now so well understood At first I didn't see it as kind But you did me a favor when you left me behind Now I'm alone, and I'm burning I am hurting like hell but I am learning The scars will take me far like they always do And I believe I'm alright I do believe I am alright Rejection never felt this good Everything unclear, now so well understood At first I didn't see it as kind But you did me a favor when you left me behind 'Cause now I see how you are Now I see how you are Now I see how it is And now I see what you do And I watch them line up I watch them fall down One after one One after one I watch your smile grow and grow and grow I think to myself, it couldn't be me! No way!!
