"Afterthought" lyrics

"Afterthought"

Hazy nights spent on long goodbyes
To worn out days filled with useless little
Lies you sold I bought them all
Play your games you test my patience
Always was an afterthought
Tow the line and now you cast me out

So I guess I'll see you around
It's only fair that I'm shutting you out
Built you up but you left me guarded
Break it down finish what you started
We lost this long ago
Clinging to your ghost
Giving up can be so cathartic
Give it up, give it up, give it up
And go

So now you run away
Become a stray
You'll never change
Lack of shame
Still guilt is there to taunt you
See the frame
In disarray
You'll never change
Your mistakes will come around to haunt you

Lies you sold I bought them all
Play your games you test my patience
Always was an afterthought
Tow the line and now you cast me out

So I guess I'll see you around
It's only fair that I'm shutting you out
Built you up but you left me guarded
Break it down finish what you started
We lost this long ago
Clinging to your ghost
Giving up can be so cathartic
Give it up, give it up, give it up
And go

You said I'm wrong
Who said I'm right?
You are lacking true contrite
Out of mind and out of sight
You said I'm wrong
You know I'm right

You said I'm wrong (rear view)
Who said I'm right?
You are lacking true contrite (see you)
Out of mind and out of sight (need to)
You said I'm wrong
You know I'm right (see through)

So I guess I'll see you around
It's only fair that I'm shutting you out
Built you up but you left me guarded
Break it down finish what you started
We lost this long ago
Clinging to your ghost
Giving up can be so cathartic
Give it up, give it up, give it up
And go
Give it and go
