I came back to get my things
thank you for getting the door
but I don't feel right walking in no more

It's quiet, I'm cold
I did my crying at home
and I'm numb now
I'm numb now

Before I'm on my way
I've one more thing to ask
Was it worth the price you paid
for my never coming back?

Why did you mess with forever?
Such a long time
to be unkind
Why did you mess with forever?

Don't you call me cruel
cruel is what you're making me do
I stick to my rules
I'm at odds with me now
Do I look my love in the eyes and say goodbye

Before I'm on my way
I've one more thing to ask
Was it worth the price you paid
for my never coming back

Why did you mess with forever?
What a long time
to be unkind
Why did you mess with forever?

You ask to kiss me once goodbye
but you already did with somebody else's lips

Tell the tiny chemicals
the ones you hold responsible
they lost me
you lost me
Now everything inside me tells me I sould run to you
and throw my arms around you
Hold your steaming crying cheeks against my own
and tell you nothing's wrong

But wrong is what you were when you forgot
that we were going on
that we were going on
that we were going strong

Tell me why did you mess with forever?
What a long time
to be unkind
Tell me why did you mess with forever
