I made you a figment of my thoughts Whether you hold them close or not My indecision is getting worse From all this constant waiting I'm over taking time To fix what was meant to be broken My words have never meant more than this So tell me are you listening now? If you do, I hope it makes your ears ring And your heart bleed more Than it ever has before If I could read your mind And take notes, It would be a best seller So many twists and turns And lines that don't make sense (damn, somebody tell her) Tell her you should never mistake A friend for a fool When they've always had your back Since the first day you fell And they caught you My words have never meant more than this So tell me are you listening now? If you do, I hope it makes your ears ring And your heart bleed more Than it ever has before You said "I hope she makes you sing as loud as I wish I could" But misery only enjoys songs about Things I can't keep And things that don't want me And things that should have never happened Things like you should never happen. My words have never meant more than this So tell me are you listening now? If you do, I hope it makes your ears ring And your heart bleed more Than it ever has before
