I had to get this out of my system, it's pretty personal I suppose



"Thanks"


Thanks for not being there,
Thanks for putting them before me,
Thanks for these tears,
Thank you for this aching heart…

The worst thing is that you don’t know,
You don’t see and you don’t ask,
Do you wonder why?
Do you have a clue what it did to me?

Thanks for not being there,
Thanks for putting them before me,
Thanks for these tears,
Thank you for this aching heart…

But I do know you know I’ll be here,
When ever you need me,
I’ll be on my way dropping what I have
Because that’s who I am…

Thanks for not being there,
Thanks for putting them before me,
Thanks for these tears,
Thank you for this aching heart…

And I also know it’s my fault,
Because I refuse to tell you,
That you choosing him over me,
Hurt me more than anything else…

Thanks for not being there,
Thanks for putting them before me,
Thanks for these tears,
Thank you for this aching heart…

And to think of the years I spent alone,
Wishing to find a friend like you,
Saying to myself I’d rather be hurt by a friend,
Than anyone else, as long as I had someone…

Thanks for not being there,
Thanks for putting them before me,
Thanks for these tears,
Thank you for this aching heart…

Have I not always put you first?
You don’t know this but there were times,
When I needed you but I didn’t come,
Because I knew you had too much…

Thanks for not being there,
Thanks for putting them before me,
Thanks for these tears,
Thank you for this aching heart…

And when I finally do,
You turn on me, towards him,
The man you’re with day and night,
How could you not see it hurt me??
