lyrics

I believed you when you said I was your valentine. I am
deceived because I believed you when you said you'd
be mine. Now I know it's over, you're always looking
over your shoulder. I knew it wouldn't last cause all we
had is now in the past.
My hands are empty just like all those letters that you
sent me. Before the ink was dry you were shopping
around for another prize. What were flames now
smolder, this love's getting colder and colder. I would
air my complaints but all your friends think you're a
saint. 2, 4, 6, 8 I don't appreciate it. 2, 4, 6, 8 the way you
always calculated. 2, 4, 6, 8 I don't appreciate it. Before
it's too late the way you always complicated it. I
believed you when you said I was your serpentine. I'm
deceived because I believed you when you said you'd
be mine.
Now I know it's over, you're only older and colder. I
should air my complaints because all your friends think
you're a saint.
