You thank me for a good year and go
And you say it like you have to leave
You're sorry for the good parts
As well as what you really did wrong
But it's all the same to me
You hold me for the last time
At the airport you hate so much
In a city you'll never leave
It's a short flight in a tall sky
It's a red eye, took a lifetime
It took me further from where I wanna be
I don't hate you
I never had the heart to
When all you wanted to be
Was a part of a whole
And all you wanted from me
Was not to feel nothing at all
You call me for the last time
On July fourth on a bad line
The irony isn't lost on me
Say you're trying to break habits
For a family you don't have yet
That you can't imagine having with me
But all you're really quitting is me
I don't blame you
I never got the chance to
All you wanted to be
Was a part of a whole
And all you wanted from me
Was not to feel nothing at all
Well, all I wanted to be
Was a part of a whole
And all you wanted for me
Was to be nothing at all
