lyrics

To the ones who tried to ruin us
This song was written for you
To the ones who put the screws to us
To the gum on all of our shoes
We're all guilty, swingin' sycophants
on a gallows made for two
To the ones who tried to ruin us
It was me, if it wasn't you

(I was wrong, wrong, wrong
for so long, long, long)

To the one who stabbed my chair
To the one who made me pull their hair
To all the alcoholics
who were drowning just like me
I know it wasn't my job
to save them from themselves
because they never learned to swim

To the ones who dug our graves for us
This song was written for you
To the ones badly behaved of us
To the bends in all of the rules
We're all horny, hopeless Hedonists
at an orgy with nothing to lose
To the ones who tried to ruin us
It was me, if it wasn't you

(I was wrong, wrong, wrong
for so long, long, long)

To the one to raided my drugs
To the one who hated me for my love
To the one who cheated with me
but never learned the game
In a hotel burning Bible joints
The liars were so easy
to live with after I survived the first

To the ones who tried to ruin us
This song was written for you
To the ones who put the screws to us
To the gum on all of our shoes
We're all horny, hopeless sycophants
on a gallows with nothing to lose
To the ones who tried to ruin us
It was me, if it wasn't you

(I was wrong, wrong, wrong
for so long, long, long)

To the one who keyed my car
To the one who stood back way too far
To the one who couldn't empathize
and drifted off inside
To the one who fucked me in the ass,
but never asked permission
To the one who wouldn't hold me
even when I begged them to

You saw me as an object
and I saw you as a plot twist
I stood you up, you laughed at me,
you made me wanna die
Why'd you make me choke you
then cry more tears than I could?
You drugged me, raped me, pissed yourself
and now I've got it all
