The Words from Really Very by Really Very

All the letters
All the post cards
All the emails
All the phone calls
All the instant messenger chats

All the photographs

You said the words
Mmmmmmmm
I said the words
I haven’t said them since

And lying there in the dark
I said I was happy for you
But I don’t care what I said anymore
Or if any of it was true

Ten years is too long
To realize that I was wrong

All the letters
All the post cards
All the emails
All the phone calls
All of those mix CDs

All these memories

We said the words
Mmmmmmmm
Those obvious words
I haven’t said them again
I never said them again

And lying there in the dark
I said I was happy for you
But I don’t care what I said anymore
Or if any of it was true

Ten fucking years is too long
To figure out that I was wrong
But now I know you don’t deserve this song
No you don’t deserve this song
You don’t deserve this song

And though I can’t take back the words
(Lying there in the dark)
I won’t waste anymore on her
