What i want is something no can give
I want to hide my face in someone's chest and cry
I want to be loved
I want to know what it feels like to have love
To be able to hold someone's hand and not realize how cold their touch is
How being with them at first seems so unreal
And then they say something
And it becomes hell
I want a rebound
I need a rebound
Because that's just what i do
I say goodbye to you
And i leave
Without a second thought
I don't want you
Nor do i need you
So I'm on rebound
Flirting every chance i get
Forgetting your name
Forgetting you existed
Dead to me
I don't look at you
I don't talk to you
You're dead
And nothing we do can ever chance that to me
Your death could be called beautiful
You got lost on the path
Took a wrong turn from advice
Listened to the demons in your head
Lost sight of me
Tripped over yourself
Fell down a mountain of remorse and pity for me
Meanwhile while you were trying to decide
I was forgetting about you
Out on a date
Don't want you back
Don't want to see you
Don't want to ever ever hear your name again
I'm on rebound
I don't mind this life
I don't ever car how may girls i date
Let's face it
I'm a player
I'll get in their minds
I'll put them to the test
Who said this wasn't ever really fine
I don't care if it hurts them
I don't care what happens after we broke up
You know all those "talks" we had
Came to an "understanding"
Well we really didn't but you don't need to know
I wasn't really reading what you were saying
Just skimming it and pretending that it hurt me
