tell me

you give me answers
to the questions i don't ask
stain my future
with a brush from my past
i used to love you
i used to miss you
why don't you listen
when i say goodbye to you

now you tell me all about
all the boys you date
and about the girls too
and how they're okay
'cause you know i care

tell me how it is
now that we don't kiss
tell me of our dreams and
how you don't miss
or think of me

tell me how it's good
now that we've moved on
tell me how you fuck
to our love song
and smile for me

and yeah i used to miss you
and yeah we used to love
but now i don't miss you
or all your dirty games of, names of

i will smile when we talk
because you don't change
say you're happy for me
but you want her name
i don't believe

i won't tell you who she is
or even that she's there
i know you want to tell me his
name and how much he cares
the time's long gone

i'll tell you one more thing now
but you won't hear
i'll tell you what i mean
but to you it's still not clear
we've said goodbye

don't tell me anymore
i haven't asked forever
neither of us needs to know
other than we're never
that's all we'll be.
