[bad word] when you need me, leave me when you need to be free [bad word] when you want me, leave me when you need me to understand
did you fall out of love because you fell in love again?
did you fall out of love because you fell in love with someone new? 

when the new love shined with all the promise of all I couldn't give to you
and the new life offered all you wanted, and you had to choose

I helped to carry you, I took good care of you, I wanted us to continue
but I knew that you would leave when the time was right for you

life was a relay I passed it off to you, you ran away and won the race
you never looked back to see what happened to me for I was only second place

when the new love shined with all the promise of all I couldn't give to you
and the new life offered all you wanted and you were asked to choose

 [bad word] together to share your sorrows where you save yourself for someone else
you keep your distance in times of hope while I cry for you all by myself

when you're silver, you [bad word] first
when you're silver, the [bad word] always hurts

I don't want unconditional love, Il'l always need to be judged
I don't want a traditional love, I'll always need to be wanted by someone else

when did the city make you so cold?
we share your sorrows but I dine alone
when did the city make you so cold? 
I cry alone while you dine with someone else

when did the city make you so cold?
we cry together but I dine alone
when did the city make you so cold?
we share your sorrows but I dine alone

I always dine alone
