FINAL WORDS

It doesn’t rain here anymore
Could be California…but I’m guessing that it’s more
You said it was something about me
But up North, you’re the one still freezing

When I was dying in the hospital
You never left flowers by my bed
But you pretended like you sent the ones
Left there by my friends
Did you really think I wouldn’t find
Out from them someday?

**Chorus**
Oh…don’t know that I’ll forgive you
Don’t know if I can
Oh…my only consolation
Is I am stronger than when we began
Oh…all that wasted love
Oh…all that wasted hurt
Don’t know that I’ll forgive you
These are my final words…

Everything you said to me was like an assault
You might as well have punched me in the jaw
I’ve spent the days since wondering what kept me there with you
But even the strongest stay sometimes…so my regret has no use

When I flew 2000 miles to see you
For the holidays
You never even gave me
A gift when I came
It wasn’t about that…it was bigger
Did you think I wouldn’t know what it meant?

**Chorus**
Oh…don’t know that I’ll forgive you
Don’t know if I can
Oh…my only consolation
Is I am stronger than when we began
Oh…all that wasted love
Oh…all that wasted hurt
Don’t know that I’ll forgive you
These are my final words…

All that useless breath I used on you
All you gave me was emotional abuse
All those lashes where the scars run deep
I am older now…wiser now…
At least I finally see

When I made plans so we would have
The perfect New Year’s Eve
The time ticked by…I waited up…
You came home late that night
That’s when you told me of the girl
You kissed there at the bar
The girl you kissed instead of me

**Chorus**
Oh…don’t know that I’ll forgive you
Don’t know if I can
Oh…my only consolation
Is I am stronger than when we began
Oh…all that wasted love
Oh…all that wasted hurt
Don’t know that I’ll forgive you
These are my final words…

These are my final words…
These are my final words…
