Against What's Best - A Picture's Only Worth a Thousand Words Until It Burns

Forgive and forget, move on and regret
Not saying all the shit that I should've when I had the chance
You're picking up the pieces and it doesn't make sense
Why you'd even try I can't begin to understand
'Cause I keep burning all the bridges I built with the letters you wrote
And breaking all the pictures that we framed and put on the wall
'Cause picking up the pieces is a fucking lost cause
And so is everything you think you are because you're not
But you can think what you want and say what you think
It doesn't really matter to me, you're not a part of the life I lead
The life I lead
I gave you everything I had
And I watched you throw it all away
This isn't what I had in mind
I thought we could find another way
But it's way too late to change the past
I dwell on it every fucking day
I may be lost for now, but that's okay
In time I know I'll find my place
When you swallowed your sorrow you choked on your pride
And tried to wash it down with a bottle but that made you cry
And think of all the times we talked for hours just to get through the night
And then you passed out on the pavement it's a shame you survived
But you can sleep where you'd like, and die in your sleep
It doesn't fucking matter to me
You're not a part of the life I lead
And you don't deserve to be
I gave you everything I had
And I watched you throw it all away
This isn't what I had in mind
I thought we could find another way
But it's way too late to change the past
I dwell on it every fucking day
I may be lost for now, but that's okay
In time I know I'll find my place
And as these pictures burn
I'll watch you drown in the flames
You're not the one, you never were
But I'll bite my tongue and take the blame
And as these pictures burn
I'll watch you drown in the flames
You're not the one, you never were
But I'll bite my tongue and take the blame
I gave you everything I had
And I watched you throw it all away
This isn't what I had in mind
I thought we could find another way
But it's way too late to change the past
I dwell on it every fucking day
I may be lost for now, but that's okay
In time I know I'll find my place
'Til then I'll bite my tongue until it bleeds
