 You've got  her now but you've lost yourself, like  there's no tomorrow
Together  at last, but you've never felt so alone
 An empty  face and a swollen heart, another  bone to swallow
 The years  go fast but the clock ticks oh so slow
 The good  things they're so few and far between
 It's much  too late to break this thing off clean
You've  seen the worst  she's got to give  (Not in a happy  place to live)
Sat  there choking  on your tears  (While she wasted  your good years)
The  things she said  they cut so deep  (And all that pain  does not come cheap)
While  she's worked  out all her fears  (You better waste  all your good years)
Nothing  you do could ever be enough but you sure  got good at the let down
Disappointment  you can shove in your liver
She  looks at you when the going gets rough but you  just put your head down
You  tried so hard but there's nothing left you can give her
 She's doing  you no favors, let her go
 And those years  are never coming back you know
You've  seen the worst  she's got to give  (Not in a happy  place to live)
Sat  there choking  on your tears  (While she wasted  your good years)
The  things she said  they cut so deep  (And all that pain  does not come cheap)
While  she's worked  out all her fears  (You better waste  all your good years)
Go!  Go! Don't  wait for the next life
Go!  Go! You're  due in the headlights
Go!  Go! Then  go get your head right
 'cause all  those years you wasted  on her, you  know you will never get them
back
Sticks  and stones they break your bones, and those  names they kinda hurt too
 And all  the years, yeah, she just dumped on you
You've  seen the worst  she's got to give  (Not in a happy  place to live)
Sat  there choking  on your tears  (While she wasted  your good years)
The  things she said  they cut so deep  (And all that pain  does not come cheap)
While  she's worked  out all her fears  (You better waste  all your good years)
