A Has Been
seeing you again reminds me of where i don't wanna be
watching you move listening to how you talk smelling your cologne
all take me back to times that were no good
drinking and drugging and meaningless sex
fighting and shoving until one of us gets hurt
all the anger and mistrust and lonely nights
replay in my head over and over again
we know its over but can't say goodbye
yet as you drove away i began to cry inside
not to the obvious eye thus inside i felt like i was gonnna die
today i woke up with you on my mind again
not as lovers not as friends just as a memory that used to be
romantic nights consisted of a twelve pack some audioslave
smoking cigerette stubbies and counting change
watching pornos helped us both get in the mood
pretending that person on t.v was eachother
to the outside we had it made perfect couple so they said
a real bonnie and clyde relationship we had you and me aganist the world
only when the lights went down so didn't our love
marrinating in hard core drugs and lies and infidelity
a secret we both kept from everyone that was eventually revealed
yet that magnetic attraction will always be there lets just keep it real
i compare the rest to you knowing i gotta break through
our love our life was dangerous and thats no hidden fact
we pushed and pushed eachothers nerve until one would react
those days are gone but your name lives on
i must be strong and carry on
to:what used to be
