Lyrics
I?ve wasted my time
On letters and phone calls and e-mails and lyrics and unrequited energy
Why haven?t you called me?
I see, that?s the way it?s gonna be
I?m not gonna sit around and play your games
I will fade away and radiate
I found a man that is what you should have been
I still love you but what can I do
I?m through breaking my soul and spirit for you -- besides --
He treats me the way that I wanted you to
I?ve healed my wounds
From the tarnished, shell-shocked and battle-fatigued little combat I played with you
I?m hangin? my sorrows on my trouble tree
And my leaves fall down and crack into colorful shapes that form my cemetery
I?ve learned to be strong in my broken place
And it?s made me who I am today
I found a man that is what you should have been
I still love you but what can I do
I?m through breaking my soul and spirit for you -- besides --
He treats me the way that I wanted you to
