Things got better when you left, your friends always say that
But I think you better check your leaving memo contract
You don't get to say, you don't get to say goodbye
And I don't want to be the one, but I could try.
Things got better when you left, I hang my hat upon it
People say I'm somewhere else, what's so sad about it?
Even though it means, even though it means goodbye
And I don't want to be the one,
I don't want to be the one here
I don't want to be the one, but I could try.
You're not talking and I'm not talking
The dog's not talking and no one's talking at all
When you're home.
No bark in the street, no bark in the yard, no bark in the house
Next bark is the sound.. of... my own... war for peace.
Things got better when you left, so tell your friends about it
I've been saying it to myself, that I can't live without it.
Even though it means, even though it means goodbye
And I don't want to be the one,
I don't want to be the one here
I don't want to be the one, but I could try.
I don't want to be the one, but I could try.
But I think you better check your leaving memo contract
You don't get to say, you don't get to say goodbye

My favorite next to Free. The riffs are fucking cool. It seems to be about an addiction of some sort. He's willing himself into believing he doesn't need it until he can live without it.
I think i agree with Lateralus - There is definately an addiction theme to this. My favourite song off Free by a country mile!
I think you're both wrong. It's about Kevin's leaving Dream Theater.
This is not about Kevin's leaving Dream Theater...He wants to make peace between his friends and all people and in the process he gets tired and says that his friends suggest to him to forget about being good or making peace and leave it be the way it is ... He say even though i may lose my friends and position i care more about peace ... he sings PEACE, PEACE, PEACE ...
