lyrics

alison says that i'm wasting my life
and i don't disagree
she says i'm not really happy, and what's worse than that
i don't even try to be

and i start to ask her what would it be worth
you can wander all over god's green earth
but she cuts me off, cause she's done with this shit
she says you always do this and i'm sick of it

you just do what you like
you never do what you should
i still love you enough to wish you would

alison says i could do better than this
if i pretended to give a damn
everyone else thinks i'm stupid, or that i just want to die
but she knows that's not who i am

and i try to tell her not to waste her breath
if i can't get brain damage, then i'll settle for death
she says how can you even joke that way?
you know you hurt your friends with the things you say

you just do what you like
you never do what you should
i still love you enough to wish you would

alison says she knows that i don't sleep
she can feel me move at night
and she's ashamed to admit it, cause she had high hopes
but this is never gonna be right

and i mumble misery's like a coastal shelf
you can't hate me more than i hate myself
she says you missed the point just like you always do
i know there's stuff you're going through
but you live in the past, you talk to ghosts
you ignore the people who care the most
i thought we had something, but arkady,
i don't know what the fuck you want from me

you just do what you like
you never do what you should
i still love you enough to wish you would

alison says that i'll never change
while people like her still love me
and she's sorry but she can't do this anymore
she says that she'll think of me
