What I Really Learned In Study Hall Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Waking up right next to you is the last thing that I want to do
Knowing you don't care
'Cause you're spineless and too much to take
My kindness was a big mistake, and it gets me nowhere
And I've been reading through your letters
Hoping you might never make up your mind
And I, I wish I was a boy again
Where I could still pretend you were mine (At least for tonight)
I'm drinking too much these days, it never seems to help (And there's nothing there)
'Cause you say I'll never change
And I'm the only one who I care about when you say
[Chorus]
That you're leaving and you're ready to go
'Cause you thought I was cheating
But I don't think you want to know
Well I think that things are better this way
When it seems like you're breathing, but you're already dead to me

[Verse 2]
Making up my mind on you is something I wish I could do But you're so damn thoughtless and I'm not going to lose
To any of these games you play, 'cause no one likes you anyway
You're just a faceless name
So what will you say when I tell you that your life's like a book
It's torn and tattered sitting on a shelf where no one wants to look
(No one wants to look) No one wants to look (No one's gonna look)

[Pre-Chorus]
And I'm sure that this is what we want
As your face begins to haunt my memories
And seep into my future dreams
Where no one can hear you scream

[Chorus]
That you're leaving and you're ready to go
'Cause you thought I was cheating
But I don't think you want to know
Well I think that things are better this way
When it seems like you're breathing, but you're already dead to me
[Outro]
I think that was pretty good actually
