Playing The Part

It's Friday night and there's nothing left to talk about
The silence shatters like a glass pane broken on the ground
as your name rings out
It's been a while since I've spoke or even thought of you
I'd say I miss you but again the glares will shut me down
so I'll leave it out
Suspicions rattle every feeling that I had for you
They're overshadowing the times you said "forget them now"
I listened well
All those lies that you'd hoped would never get around
have finally surfaced and the contract out on your heart,
is collected now
You thought I'd never hear the rumors
and said "no matter what don't listen"
You think that I don't care about you
Well you brought it on yourself
Breaking hearts has become this little game to you
I'm sick of trying to mend up all the scattered parts
of broken hearts
It's not enough that I know you've been with other guys
I've got to hear it from my best friend that he turned you down
And you've let me down
And the truth be told, I'm breaking down
and my jaded thoughts are fading out
Everything I used to say, I'll mean again
Three weeks have gone by
since you've been in my mind
But tonight simple, lonely, pathetic me, I cried
I cried tonight
I'm forced to mock all that you stand for
So simply close your ears, don't listen
It's time you wise up to your senses (I don't care about you)
Break!
And you'll hate this
and won't take it lying down
But you'll learn
you brought it on yourself
