Empty Words

You left
Needed to find yourself
Just an excuse to go and
Look for someone else
You're back
You're thinking just like that
I can forgive
But let me tell you what
I can't forget
Me standing there
As you walked away
Ignoring me when I was
Begging you to stay
You never turned around
Not even once
While I called your name
Said is this what you really want

But they were empty words
Now I'm way too numb to ever let them hurt
You didn't get the best of me
I rescued what was left of me
So save it
You can keep your empty words

You're here
Through crocodile tears
You make your case
Describing how much you have changed
You're sure
'Cause it's always worked before
You can persuade me
You won't doubt your feelings anymore
So confident
But you'll be surprised
It took awhile but I can finally recognize
I'm so much better off
With someone else
Who can see what they have
When it's right in front of them

And won't give me empty words
Now I'm way too numb to ever let them hurt
You didn't get the best of me
I rescued what was left of me
So save it
You can keep your empty words

Don't need your empty words
Now I'm way too numb to ever let them hurt
You didn't get the best of me
I rescued what was left of me
Save it
You can keep your empty words
