So much happened and I couldn't deny
That I broke your feelings with the way that I lied
So I do understand the reason you became so weak
Oh baby you're not half the person that you used to be
Brag your exploits down the telephone
While you scatter her images around our home
And it's strange how where you feel pride I felt only shame
I guess it's not unusual that I took all the blame
Did you feel as guilty when you whispered out my name?
They say it takes a while
To really mean goodbye
You say you feel confused
But I'm just feeling used
A year of misery
Has left its mark on me
I should've left you when
I wanted to but then
It's never fair
It's never fair
It's never fair
It's never fair
I wish I could remove
The things I put you through
There's nothing I could change
If we began again
But you don't have to take
Any more
Any more
Any more
Any more
I guess I'm only half the person that you thought I'd be
I'm thinking of the time when you first said that you loved me
I'm feeling like I'm half the person that I ought to be
That I broke your feelings with the way that I lied
So I do understand the reason you became so weak
Oh baby you're not half the person that you used to be
Brag your exploits down the telephone
While you scatter her images around our home
And it's strange how where you feel pride I felt only shame
I guess it's not unusual that I took all the blame
Did you feel as guilty when you whispered out my name?
They say it takes a while
To really mean goodbye
You say you feel confused
But I'm just feeling used
A year of misery
Has left its mark on me
I should've left you when
I wanted to but then
It's never fair
It's never fair
It's never fair
It's never fair
I wish I could remove
The things I put you through
There's nothing I could change
If we began again
But you don't have to take
Any more
Any more
Any more
Any more
I guess I'm only half the person that you thought I'd be
I'm thinking of the time when you first said that you loved me
I'm feeling like I'm half the person that I ought to be

This is a very deeply emotional song over a breakup. I get the feeling that the singer wasn't completely interested in her lover in the first place, and that her lover was obsessed with someone else. She lied to herself from the outset, thinking she could change her lover. She blames him for not changing, but also herself for thinking she could change him in the first place.
