I'm Not Going To Be Here
I don't know what to tell you
He's stealing me away
But you haven't got a clue
And I find it hard to say
Im not going to be here
For you to figure yourself out
Because after this year
You've given me nothing but doubt
I've picked myself off the floor
I've finished every bottle
You've put me through this before
Left me with only my shadow to cuddle
After all the pain you put me through
He wants to see me smile
Something you couldn't do
He wants to walk that extra mile
I waited for you
Held on to...

I've picked myself off the floor
I've finished every bottle
You've put me through this before
Left me with only my shadow to cuddle
After all the pain you put me through
He wants to see me smile
Something you couldn't do
He wants to walk that extra mile
I waited for you
Held on to...

Dragged your feet and smeared mud across me.
Tearing me apart,
Bit by bit;
Tear by tear.
I was just an object, something to be had.
Disposable, to be tossed aside.
You unraveled me,
Slowly and cleverly,
Picking out the weaker strings to be plucked first.
You were greedy some days, you tore chunks out as wholes.
Because you took everything.
My sole purpose.
Until finally you took the last of it.
The last of everything.
Chewed it and spit it out.
Now I am unrecognizable,...
