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
