I want you to know

That I'm happy for you

I wish nothing but

The best for you both

 

An older version of me

Is she perverted like me

Would she go down on you in a theater

Does she speak eloquently

And would she have your baby

I'm sure she would make a really excellent mother

 

'Cause the love that you gave that we made

Wasn't able to make it enough for you to be open wide, no

And every time you speak her name

Does she know how you told me you'd hold me until you died

'Til you died, but you're still alive

 

And I'm here to remind you

Of the mess you left when you went away

It's not fair to deny me

Of the cross I bear that you gave to me

You, you, you oughta know

 

You seem very well

Things look peaceful

I'm not quite as well

I thought you should know

 

Did you forget about me

Mr. Duplicity

I hate to bug you in the middle of dinner

It was a slap in the face

How quickly I was replaced

And are you thinking of me when you fuck her

 

‘Cause the love that you gave that we made

Wasn't able to make it enough for you to be open wide, no

And every time you speak her name

Does she know how you told me you'd hold me until you died

'Til you died but you're still alive

 

And I'm here to remind you

Of the mess you left when you went away

It's not fair to deny me

Of the cross I bear that you gave to me

You, you, you oughta know

 

(break)

 

‘Cause the joke that you laid in the bed that was me

And I'm not going to fade as soon as you close your eyes

And you know it

And everytime I scratch my nails down someone else's back

I hope you feel it

Well, can you feel it

 

Well, I'm here to remind you

Of the mess you left when you went away

It's not fair to deny me

Of the cross I bear that you gave to me

You, you, you oughta know

 

Well, I'm here to remind you

Of the mess you left when you went away

It's not fair to deny me

Of the cross I bear that you gave to me

You, you, you oughta know
