I'll be dead before I crawl on back
You've got a lotta nerve treating me like that
Don't bother picking up the slack
You'll have a heart attack
I know you were messing around
Going out of my way to meet you downtown
You said so when you were drunk
Making sure I was in earshot
I felt compelled to show someone cared about you
In turn you took me and colored me blue
With a paintball gun
Leaving welts
So I'm never ever coming back
F*ck that notion
Emotional commotion
I don't have time for that
I think it's safe to say I sprouted a spine
Growing stronger by the day
I'll let it reach for the sun
By surrounding myself with people who care
I'll surely get over it
But still
I felt compelled to show I really cared about you
In turn you took me and dowsed me red
With a bleeding thigh
Leaving scars for the both of us
I was overbearing because I was scared
Of hearing you died when I could be there
Happened once when I was 16 and I can't do that again
But it looks like you're alright so I won't waste my time missing you
