Jack-Henry - Fake Love

I stood by you through bleached hair and tattoos
Drunken progress and sober setbacks
But the times I looked for strength and support
You met with judgement and cold indifference
Don't even try to escape unscathed
You should really live through the nightmare you made

Even if you had the words to say, you wouldn't say them
Boy I'm tired of singing with a bleeding heart that you'll never notice
Oh I'd rather sleep with happiness alone than spend another night by your bedpost
Vengeance tastes so much sweeter than all of the fake love you gave me

You used to be integral to me
But like whiskey over ice you need the balance to suffice
Now that I'm clean I feel a lot more like me
I'm no longer keeping your passivity
If forgiveness touches your lips
I'll gladly meet it with both of my fists

Even if you had the words to say you wouldn't say them
Boy I'm tired of singing with a bleeding heart that you'll never notice
Oh I'd rather sleep with happiness alone than spend another night by your bedpost
Vengeance tastes so much sweeter than all of the fake love you gave me

Save your breath, I wouldn't want you to choke
On an attempt to be honest such a redundant joke
Answer me this before you leave me alone
How does it feel to be nothing more than a waste of a boy

Even if you had the words to say you wouldn't say them
Boy I'm tired of singing with a bleeding heart that you'll never notice
Oh I'd rather sleep with happiness alone than spend another night by your bedpost
Vengeance tastes so much sweeter than all of the fake love you gave me
