Halfway from midnight to dawn
Let's just forget and move on

Everything you say
It never seems to change a thing in sight
The things you never did
Were even worse considering what's right

(All this time I've)
Been the one you string along
You tie me up to bring along
Never once getting in your way

What you say is unbelievable
I can't stand to hear it once more
What you did I don't believe it all
And what's worse you can't even say why

Half of my life flashes by
Just look me straight in the eye

Words are kinda cheap
The company you keep is more to blame
The things you always did
They never seemed to me to be as tame

(All this time I)
Tried to leave and never could
Wonder if I ever would
Knowing you'd be standing in my way, so

What you say is unbelievable
I can't stand to hear it once more
What you did I don't believe it all
And what's worse you can't even say why

You can't even say why
You can't even say

Like it was ten years ago
What's forgotten down below
Some things that you'll never know

What you say I can't believe
I wanna know what's right
What you say I can't believe
I wanna know what's right
What you say I can't believe
I wanna know what's right

What you say is unbelievable
I can't stand to hear it once more
What you did I don't believe it all
And what's worse you can't even say why (I wanna know what's right)

What you say is unbelievable
I can't stand to hear it once more
What you did I don't believe it all
And what's worse you can't even say why

What you say I can't believe
I wanna know what's right
What you say I can't believe
I wanna know what's right

    There's a guy or girl in a relationship in which they aren't appreciated/not really wanted. They finally approach their "significant other" and bring up the problem, only to get a stupid or cold answer. They finally realise that things aren't going to get better, but are left with nothing after years of being dragged along by someone who lied to them just to keep them around.

    It truly is quite unbelievable what people will do to or for others...

There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again.
