I'll make it look easy
but believe me, it's not.
You make it look easy
you leave me, you're gone.
I'll make it look easy
like you weren't even here
but why do I keep finding you
in this
that
there?
I close my eyes,
flashback to lie number one
mistake number two
strike three, you're done.
I'll open 'em like it's easy
crack jokes
but laughing wont please me
or ease the pain running through
half of my veins are bleeding you.
I'll make it look easy
but damnit, it's hard.
you're sorry you played me?
Baby, I'm no card.
So here's the thing.

Everyone looks at me like I'm a magician, I moved on so fast.

I make it look easy
look at all the people who actually want me.
I don't need you,
if you don't need me.
I'm already gone
when you decide to leave me.
And now you've got candy eyes
feeding me lies
like "baby, I'm sorry."
"Jessie, don't you want me?"
but I'm so sorry
I'm not drowning anymore
now you're on your knees
do you even know what you're sorry for?

meet life,
it's moving on.
I flashback to that night
and just like that, I'm gone
you lied
about what is and isn't
what you did or didn't
what is and what was
but I don't blame you
that's what a liar does.
I'm leaving you
You lost me
like liars do.


I'll just keep going
though I'm out of rhymes
maybe I can write my mind
into the right this time

Hey, Mr. Ego
Mr. Hearts For Dinner
Mr. Fuck her and leaver
Hey Mr. Nice guy
ha, that's a nice lie
Hey, how was forever?
yeah you're smart
but baby, I'm clever.

We fell into each other like summer rain 
with air still warm enough to taste 
we changed like seasons do 
you lied like liars do 
whatever the motivation 
or lack thereof 
whatever the situation 
or one made up 
you can’t change the things you rearranged
or grasp what almost was
you left the scars a liar does 
You weren’t even human 
when you washed me away
we fell apart like summer rain. 
and now you’re sorry 
but I’m so sorry 
I’m not drowning anymore
and now you’re sorry
but darling
what are you sorry for?
And now you’re sorry 
I’m leaving 
now you loved me 
like liars do. 

It's been a while.
