In hindsight, I've been a fool
In fact, I'm quite surprised
It's taken me this long to pay the price
Because I lashed out, and you took my word
I filled you with lies
I thought were truths until last night
I scribbled names all on my board
And each and every one has their own story they can say about me
And I wonder if they tell them
I guess I'll find out in Hell
I don't doubt that they have a room reserved just for me
So hang me on the clothing line
Vertigo erases me as I drift off like swine
Nothing's ever cut and dry
Exhibition takes a toll when no one looks back twice
I faltered then
And still, I fall
So watch me rot
As the resident afterthought
Okay
I'll admit that I had left them out to dry
This brain is scrambled up with lies
How frail am I?
Dwindle down with clear hindsight
And honestly, I'm quite surprised
It took this long to realize
They weren't the only ones disguised
Lost composure
Never found my closure
Mind's just too damn polar
I keep getting colder, frozen over
Scratch out names etched in my walls
And waiting past the clock for calls
My head affected my surroundings
I never thought it was the cause
It always does
Please just think of me
In recovery
Stuck in infancy
I won't live in infamy
So hang me on the clothing line
And tick me off when it's alright, I swear I'll be just fine
Nothing's ever cut and dry
Discomfort grows but watch the fire stoke and take that light
I'll trip and fall, I'll give my all
I'll leave transgressions in the dust
I'll jump, I'll crawl, I'll stand up tall
But don't say I'm not in your thoughts
You'll make your plans
I'll come dead last, but I'll take it all
I'll hold no grudge
You know my hurt
You know my faults
I'm your resident afterthought
Ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
I'm your resident afterthought
I'm your resident afterthought
I'm your resident afterthought
I'm your resident afterthought
I'm your resident afterthought
I'm your resident afterthought
I'm your resident afterthought
I'm your resident afterthought
