I wish that I drank because of you And not only because of me And then I could blame something painful enough Not to make me look any more weak When you heard my name, you could be angry And have a good reason to be And then when I sang a horrible drunken parade Of my worst thoughts, I'd say "Give me no sympathy" ♪ It's the mercy I can't take ♪ Oh, I wish you'd come over Not to stay, just tell me that I was your biggest mistake to my face And then leave me alone in an empty apartment Face down in the carpet, I wish you'd hurt me
