about

this track is about the same person as “nonetheless” is about. it continues the story of unrequited love.

lyrics

i thought you knew
where you were standin’
when you stood on the porch
of my wounded heart

seems that you were blind
‘n couldn’t see
all that dried blood
stickin’ to the bottoms of your feet

came home from tour
two weeks in my pocket
to another empty promise
of stickin’ by me
through the worst of times

“lean on me,”
you’d tell me.
“i’ll be there for you”
you’d say innocently

but look at you now
push comin’ to shove
and you’re like all the rest
just another boy
took four months of my love
just to say it was all a lie after all
that you never loved me
but you had a good time
and you’re sorry for using me to have it

“lean on me,”
you’d tell me.
“i’ll be there for you,”
you’d say innocently.
