lyrics

I was wired
when I told you what I'd change
if you changed your name
I'd say goodbye

don't you believe there's nothing better for me
and aren't you tired of watching me try?

I could tell you this now
but I'll wait for the letters you send
don't wait for this
to come to an end

you called me the day it was time to leave the state
you were finally
ready to go

and don't you believe there's nothing better for me
and aren't you tired of telling me no?

I could lie to you now
but you know what it's come down to
I gave away
everything I promised you
