You used to say you always wanted to find
Someone who was just like me
Yet here I am, ripe for the taking
And instead you tell me we can't be

You say you want me as a friend
There's too much standing in our way
I don't see how you can tell me that
After promising we'd have our day

Don't tell me I don't understand
It seems to be completely clear
Don't try to keep me on the side
I don't want to be there...No, I won't be there

There was a time I could see a future
Built on everything we shared
We spent our days just telling little secrets
Of how much we cared

But now the tide is changing
You've found yourself a someone new
And that island girl I used to adore
Just turned her gun at me and blew

Don't tell me I'm your good friend
We could've had our fairy tale
Don't try to use me as your confidant
I don't want to be there...I don't want to be there

And I know I must seem like I'm being unfair
To look you straight in the eye and say "I don't care"
But you need to know what you've put me through
Since you don't seem to have a fucking clue

So here we stand
Divided by a little piece of agony
And so it goes
You'll never know now if we were really meant to be

Don't think I want to hear your tales
Of the heartache that he'll bring
Don't think that I'll be your sympathetic ear
Don't wish that I would be that friend
You'd turn to when things go wrong
Just know that I don't want to be there...I don't want to be there

Don't think I'll go and change with time
Don't think I'll learn to see past here
Just know your sorrows not welcome
And I don't wnat to go there...I don't want to go there.
