I'm not trying to be cruel But you wanted the truth so I'm here telling you That you're no good for me And you're not a bad guy But the harder I try to be here with you The less of you I see And you work yourself sick But the cost of assiduousness is as high As your head is thick I'm so sick of explaining you to my friends If you come to your senses Or they finally leave you You'll find it's a blessing, and not quite a curse 'Cause I'm just a lesson you had to learn You sing all the right things But your honesty stings And the real you It's somewhere in-between Well your heart isn't broken It just hasn't quite woken up Since you laid it to rest So many Christmases ago And I tried not to care When you laughed at my hair But I needed something just to prove you're aware That I'm falling apart Making sense of your heart Don't wait for my call I have released you Don't wait for my call I have released you A girl who's in love She sees what she wants to Well you say you're in love with me But I don't believe you I don't believe you I don't believe you If you come to your senses Or they finally leave you You'll find it's a blessing, and not quite a curse 'Cause I'm just a lesson you had to learn
