When I'm away from you

I'm happier than ever

Wish I could explain it better

I wish it wasn't true

Give me a day or two

To think of something clever

To write myself a letter

To tell me what to do

Do you read my interviews?

Or do you skip my avenue?

When you said you were passin' through

Was I even on your way?

I knew when I asked you to

Be cool about what I was tellin' you

You'd do the opposite of what you said you'd do

And I'd end up more afraid

Don't say it isn't fair

You clearly weren't aware

That you made me miserable

So if you really wanna know

When I'm away from you

I'm happier than ever

Wish I could explain it better

I wish it wasn't true

You call me again, drunk in your Benz

Drivin' home under the influence

You scared me to death but I'm wastin' my breath

'Cause you only listen to your fuckin' friends

I don't relate to you

I don't relate to you, no

'Cause I'd never treat me this shitty

You made me hate this city

And I don't talk shit about you on the internet

Never told anyone anything bad

'Cause that shit's embarrassing, you were my everything

And all that you did was make me fuckin' sad

So don't waste the time I don't have

And don't try to make me feel bad

I could talk about every time that you showed up on time

But I'd have an empty line 'cause you never did

Never paid any mind to my mother or friends

So I shut 'em all out for you 'cause I was a kid

You ruined everything good

Always said you were misunderstood

Made all my moments your own

Just fuckin' leave me alone
