Viewpoints - Phantom Pain

So tell me how you've made it this far
With your lack of selflessness 
Was it the way you bat those eyes
Or that short black dress

I've had it up to here with all your forgery
And all the nights I went impatiently thinking
It's taken me too long to see the real you come undone
Is that how you were raised to treat someone?

This hurts, but not enough to make me want you back
Your weight was on my shoulders and it broke every bone I had
Our misery and meaning promised every defeated day
I know I never meant anything
It was all just phantom pain

I caught you hiding behind the walls you built up around yourself
You said you were all alone, but I found someone else
I know that everything we had fell through
Maybe someday you'll grow up and learn to the tell the truth
(But I doubt it)

This hurts, but enough to make me want you back
Your weight was on my shoulders and it broke every bone I had
Our misery and meaning promised every defeated day
I know I never meant anything
It was all just phantom pain

Did you get what you wanted?
A house alone that you know I'm haunting
Did you get what you wanted?
A house alone that you know I'm haunting

This hurts, but enough to make me want you back
Your weight was on my shoulders and it broke every bone I had
Our misery and meaning promised every defeated day
I know I never meant anything
It was all just pain
