lyrics

You'll never fill the hole
No one will ever feel the same
No one will ever be quite as insane
About you, Darling

Well I know you always wanted a song about you
And I know it's a little late but I hope it's still true
I hope you're listening, baby...
I hope you're listening, baby...

This is for you and your family and all of the rest
Of those fair weather friends who said that it's for the best
I hope they're listening, baby...
I hope they're listening closely

Cause when I thought about the future it always had you
With a dog and a cat and a baby or two
I would've given you everything that you ever wanted
And done anything to make sure that you got it

But I guess all of that just wasn't good enough for you
You left me all alone - You left me for a fool
There's a picture of us with the glass all shattered
Sitting in your trash like we never even mattered

But nothing's ever the same after you take it away

But I won't be caught dead
No, I won't be caught unrequited
I'm gonna get you out of my head
So I will be left unaffected

You'll never fill the hole
No one will ever feel the same
No one will ever be quite as insane
About you, Darling

I'm gonna carve this tome out of flesh and bone
I'm gonna give it a name, I'm gonna carry it home
And though my knees with shake and my back with break
I'm never gonna leave it alone
And when the truth comes out I'll be sick of it
Because I knew it all along
Now I'm not afraid to find my way
Even if it's alone...

But I won't be caught dead
No, I won't be caught unrequited
I'm gonna get you out of my head
So I will be left unaffected

You'll never fill the hole
No one will ever feel the same
No one will ever be quite as insane
About you, Darling

And every day I pray to your friend, Jesus
That some day I just won't give a damn
But I'll never see things the same way
Cause I'll be looking through the holes in my hands

I know I'm petty, angry, and selfish
I know I'm immature and mean
But at least I know who I am
At least I know who to be

I hope you fucking choke to death
On all your hopes and dreams
I hope you always see my face at night
And you cry yourself to sleep

I hope you're stuck in this dead end town forever
With all the friends that you stole from me
Cause deep down you're just like your mother
No matter how hard you tried not to be

But whenever I go swimming
I will think about the Jaws theme
I will make plans
And I'll try to follow through

The fear of failure will always keep me
Locked inside my room
And whenever I start to fall in love
I'll think of you...
