What do you tell yourself
When guilt creeps in
And you have to justify your actions?
"I'm not the man for her"
"She's too good for me"
"She deserves better"
"I'm doing what's right for her"
Don't you dare
Don't you dare assume you know what I need
Don't you dare tell yourself what you told me about her
About why you stayed away
Like you're making the biggest sacrifice
Like you're doing us a favour
Don't you dare tell yourself you're doing right by me
When you have never tried
Nor ever intended to
To truth is...
You're a coward
Just like the rest of 'em
I hope you can never sleep...
