I'm (4)____________________ to see the better side of me
But I can't take all your jabs and taunts
You're pointing out my every fault
And you (5)____________ why I walked away

How could you expect anything less?
You latched onto me then cried that I strung you along
I told you (6)________ you asked
I knew (7)________ wouldn't last
At least I could be honest about that
And now you're telling everyone
How I (8)________ did you wrong
I guess you never knew me at all
Remember on my (9)________ birthday
You took me where we went on our first date
We stayed till closing time, after 4 glasses of wine
You started with a pointless argument
You said that I forgot to compliment
The dress you (10)________ that night
That I've seen a thousand times
But I think we just (11)________ different things
I (12)________ space, you want a diamond ring
Whatever made you think we (13)________ meant to be?
