[Verse 1]
You’re not asking questions and you overshare
Saying, “I’m mad,” then you’re pulling my hair
And if you don’t love me, then why am I here?
‘Cause I haven’t seen you in over a year
Stare down at my feet as I walk out the door
Memorize the grain on your living room floor
The patterns I’ll keep, but I’ll never repeat
They’re warning signs, not memories

[Chorus]
You say you’re gonna rot in my mind
But I’ll let you live and grow and I
And I’ll part the clouds
And let the sun shine down on your grave
That I’ll visit from time to time
You’ll mean nothing
You’ll mean nothing to me

[Verse 2]
If I kill myself, would you do it, too?
Would I finally do something that you wouldn’t do?
Your music sounds great, it sounds just like mine
Your Top 40, fu*k, you stole half of my lines
Now you’re pouring out the urn
The lovers that you burned
Wish the fires that you started weren’t so half-hearted
And you’re flooding your apartment
And your floorboards have started to
[warp] (??) like you loved it
But if there was love, where is it?
If there was love, where is it?

[Chorus]
You say you’re gonna rot in my mind
But I’ll let you live and grow and I
And I’ll part the clouds

And let the sun shine down on your grave
That I’ll visit from time to time
You’ll mean nothing
You’ll mean nothing to me

[Post-Chorus]
You’re nothing
Oh, you’re nothing to me
You’ll mean nothing
You’ll mean nothing to me
Oh, you’re nothing
Oh, you’re nothing to me

[Bridge]
I adored you, I mourned you, only showed love toward you
I warned you, I swore that I wouldn’t absorb you
I adored you, I mourned you, only showed love toward you
I warned you, I swore that I wouldn’t absorb you
I adored you, I mourned you, only showed love toward you
I warned you, I swore that I wouldn’t absorb you
I adored you, I mourned you, only showed love toward you
I warned you, I swore that I’d fu*king absorb you

[Chorus]
You’re nothing
Oh, you’re nothing to me
You’ll mean nothing
You’ll mean nothing to me
Oh, you’re nothing (Oh)
Oh, you’re nothing to me
You’ll mean nothing
You’ll mean nothing to me

[Outro]
And you’ll have a kid and she turns seventeen
I hope you lose your breath and feel disgusting
