Best Friends For Never

80 proof is no excuse,

an apology so insincere,

out of your mouth,

we sing out loud for everyone to hear.

(and I heard)

But in my own defense,

I feel I've been more than patient,

the one thing that I can't stand,

is the fact you show no remorse or class,

enough to own up to this mistake.

(it's your mistake)

Words fell short,

as your lies grew stronger

and through it all I always loved her

when you think things are getting better,

remember we're best friends for never,

because of this I'm so much stronger,

took a while but I moved on,

so when you think things are getting better,

remember we're best friends for never.

Don't initiate a conversation,

that instigates a confrontation,

I found a new best friend in hatred,

that says it's too damn late to save this,

you're so good at making bad decisions,

but even better at burning bridges,

knowing everything that I know now,

I never would have put the fire out.

I'd rather watch you choke on the smoke,

from the flames,

until I know that only ashes remain.

(ashes remain)

Words fell short,

as your lies grew stronger,

through it all I always loved her

when you think things are getting better,

remember we're best friends for never,

because of this I'm so much stronger,

took a while but I moved on,

so when you think things are getting better,

remember we're best friends for never.

When I gave an inch,

you'd take the mile,

if I gave it you'd take it,

you claim to be the story,

and that's all you'll ever be,

just a page in your own diary,

that ain't that great to read.

Words fell short,

as your lies grew stronger,

through it all I always loved her

when you think things are getting better,

remember we're best friends for never,

because of this I'm so much stronger,

took a while but I moved on,

so when you think things are getting better,

remember we're best friends for never,

remember we're best friends for never.
