There goes the one I had, there goes the one I knew,
It lies abandoned like a useless conversation,
There goes the one I had, there goes the one I knew,
It's sick inside me, like some memory gone rotten over time.
And you said you're never gonna change,
And it seems to me...seems to me you've always stayed the same.
There goes the one I had, there goes the one I knew,
It's too heavy to carry, so I pick it up from time to time,
There goes the one I had, there goes the one I knew,
You've sent your message with all the finesse of a letter-bomb.
And you said you're never gonna change,
And it seems to me...seems to me you've always stayed the same.
And it's harder, now that I can see everything we used to be,
It's perfect and it's paralysing; tell me why I try,
It's hard now to think about; that's the way it goes, without a doubt,
It's better now that I found out that it's alright,
And it's harder, now that I can see everything we used to be,
It's perfect and it's paralysing; tell me why I try,
It's hard now to think about; that's the way it goes, without a doubt,
It's better now that I found out.
There goes the one I had, there goes the one I knew,
There goes the one I had, there goes the one I knew.
And you said you're never gonna change,
And it seems to me...seems to me you've always stayed the same.
And it's harder, now that I can see everything we used to be,
It's perfect and it's paralysing; tell me why I try,
It's hard now to think about; that's the way it goes, without a doubt,
It's better now that I found out that it's alright,
And it's harder, now that I can see everything we used to be,
It's perfect and it's paralysing; tell me why I try,
It's hard now to think about; that's the way it goes, without a doubt,
It's better now that I found out that it's alright,
It's harder, now that I can see everything we used to be,
It's perfect and it's paralysing; tell me why I try,
It's hard now to think about; that's the way it goes, without a doubt,
It's better now that I found out that it's alright.
There goes the one I had, there goes the one I knew,
There goes the one I had, there goes the one I knew.
