Nothing was saving our day
There was nothing to say but you said something anyway
Claiming I stepped out of line
which forced you to leave me as if that idea was mine
Oh, you stupid thing
Speaking of course as your dear departed
Oh, you stupid thing
It wasn't me that you outsmarted
Oh, you stupid thing
stopping it all before it even started
I bet you knew it would come
that's just like you, to sit back and just play it dumb
One word of warning would help
but that sacrifice was made trying to save yourself
Maybe that's just how I am
to fall where I stand or I'm weak for that kind of man
One who looks helpless and brave
(bass notes)
but you turned into a coward I don't care for the parts you saved
