lyrics

[AFTERTHOUGHT - LYRICS]

I thought about you today
Y'know it's been a long time
I still have you on Facebook and it says you're doing fine
And I couldn't really talk to you
It's been way too long
The only thing I really knew how to do was to write you a song

And I know you won't hear me no matter how I scream
But I'm gonna do it anyway, you can't stop me!

Sometimes I wonder if you think about me too
You probably don't but I just wanted to know
See, I'm a lot better (though I still talk to myself)
And I'm still a little broken
I just learned to hide it well

And I don't drink anymore
I say what I think
It gets me into trouble
Cause I don't think before I speak
I don't give a shit

And I don't want this to bring you down
Wait, yes I do!
I want you to be miserable
So you can see how I feel
And I know that you don't feel bad
I know you don't care
And I know you don't remember me
But that's OK

Cause I no longer wanna climb up to the top of the nearest tall building and survey the drop and close my eyes and throw myself off
And on my way down I might suffer a heart attack and die
So when I paint the pavement with my guts...at least I made you look
