Bleached Mercury

I know I ain't high brow, but maybe for right now
I don't think I can wow
But maybe you could let me off of your hook
Call me insane, I'm stuck in my own brain
Let me off your chain and
You won't get a chapter in my book
I know you hate to see it
But I'm not getting bit
We just weren't the right fit
And that's hard for you to recognize
I know that you'll hate me
But in time you will see
We were just not to be and
It's time I see through your lies
She'll never know what this song's about
Feeling like Bleached Mercury
Please why can't you just let me out
You know we were never meant to be
Why do long distance when there's no distance at all
I'm by myself no rise, just the fall
Who's to say we get to live another day
I think I like it better this way
Who says that I have to change
And I know you're looking at me like I'm strange
But this is who I want to be
Why can't I just have fun
And why do I have to run
From everything I know and love
I guess this is goodbye
But not for very long
I know its not the time
For us to go along
I like it this way
I'm beggining to be strong
But that could fall apart
By the end of this song
I always improve
But I don't always know the next move
As long as I can get by
You played me like a game
And you know it's really a shame
Because of the good that we had
We never had something actual
I think that might be factual
I'll never forgive you now
It doesn't matter anyway, there's nothing to do
Nobody will know except for me and you
She'll never know what this song's about
Feeling like Bleached Mercury
Please why can't you just let me out
You know we were never meant to be
Why do long distance when there's no distance at all
I'm by myself no rise, just the fall
Who's to say we get to live another day
I think I like it better this way
You'll never know what this songs about
You never ask or tell
I've gotten better now on my own
And I don't wish you well
Because with you it was never good
I'm glad I have new friends
Instead of feeling trapped under your thumb
I'll reach all those loose ends
She'll never know what this song's about
Feeling like Bleached Mercury
Please why can't you just let me out
You know we were never meant to be
Why do long distance when there's no distance at all
I'm by myself no rise, just the fall
Who's to say we get to live another day
I think I like it better this way
She'll never know what this song's about
Feeling like Bleached Mercury
Please why can't you just let me out
You know we were never meant to be
Why do long distance when there's no distance at all
I'm by myself no rise, just the fall
Who's to say we get to live another day
I think I like it better this way
Feeling like Bleached Mercury
You know we were never meant to be
I'll say it between you and me
