What I Really Learned in Study Hall Lyrics

Waking up right next to you
Is the last thing that I want to do
Knowing you don't care
Cause you're spineless and too much to take
And my kindness was a big mistake
It gets me nowhere
And I've been reading through your letters
Hoping that you'd never make up your mind
And I wish I was a boy again
Where I could still pretend you were mine
I'm drinking too much these days it never seems to help
Cause you say I'll never change
And that I'm the only one who I care about when you say
That you're leaving and you're ready to go
Cause you thought I was cheating
But I don't think you want to know

Well I think that things are better this way
When it seems like you're breathing
But you're already dead to me
Making up my mind on you
Is something I wish I could do
But you're so damn thoughtless and I'm not going to lose
To any of these games you play
Cause no one likes you anyway
You're just a faceless name
So what will you say
When I tell you that your lifes like a book
It's torn and tattered sitting on a shelf
Where no one wants to look
And it seems
That this is what we want
As your face begins to haunt my memories
And seep into my future dreams
Where no one can hear you scream
That you're leaving and you're ready to go
Cause you thought I was cheating
But I don't think you want to know
Well I think that things are better this way
When it seems like you're breathing
But you're already dead to me
