Back again and this time broken
Dying to hear those words not spoken
Now your lease has expired
I�m not longer the one desired
I wonder how much I ever really meant
I wonder when my days were spent
And now it�s the Second Time Around
And I have fallen to the ground.

I can�t take it anymore
I�ve lost my inner war
I tried to hold you to me
But all you did was break me
I�m clearing my love away
It won�t be there another day
And for this Second Time Around
I�ll make no sound.

I�ve forgotten all you said
�Rent a Friend� is dead
No longer caring for your lies
I�ve said my good-byes
When you�ve lost yourself and want me there
I�ll just sit and stare
It is the Second Time Around
And �Rent a Friend� has fallen down.

A company now burning
And time keeps turning.

Can you handle �Rent a Friend� being dead? Can you handle knowing I won�t be there when you�ve lost all you discarded me for?

This is how I am, this is how I was:
Lost in the cause.

And no, I�m not alright.

I�ve chosen how to stop it. I will not be �Rent a Friend� anymore. I will now let you make me feel that way. You never cared. So now, neither do I.
