Streetlight Manifesto - The Receiving End of it All lyrics

So Marigold, my love, you've had too much to drink And I need not remind you, our discount tickets for this sinking ship Take-backs and sweet regrets, that's all that we have left No one is looking out for anyone but number one One to one, two to dance, we all get our sweet romance Though sour grapes will turn to wine it's all just vinegar with time And oh, I want to know, we all want to know How can anybody treat somebody so? She said it hurts too much I said it will never hurt enough No one will ever see these cuts No one will ever call this bluff But that's just the way that it goes And when he left us he said, "It's not so bad" That motherf**er he took everything we had And when I'm thinking back I'm counting all the ways Nobody helped us so we dreamt of better days And we sang: "Yeah that's just the way that it goes" Yeah, we used to be in love (my love!), but now we're just in like And we broke all of our promises and baby that ain't right Because you don't know what it's like to lose it all Take it back, take it back because you don't know Take it back, take it back because you don't know what it's like to be on the receiving end of it all No! No! You were not on the receiving end of it all No! No! You were not on the receiving end of it all No! No! You were not on the receiving end of it all No! No! You were not on the receiving end of it all You beg and plead, but no one here can save you Why would they try when they can't quite save themselves? So Marigold, someday we'll have to write a script But I won't stop denying ashamed of all the selfish things we did Dropped out of every single friendship that you had They nearly loved you but you never could have loved somebody back Tell me of your sorrows; tell me everything from the start I'd like to do my part to help a friend in need I said you could come to me, but when you need someone most, I wasn't there, I wasn't even… She said it hurts too much I said it will never hurt enough No one will ever see these cuts No one will ever call this bluff But that's just the way that it goes And when he left us he said, "It's not so bad" That motherf**er he took everything we had And when I'm thinking back I'm counting all the ways Nobody helped us so we dreamt of better days And we sang: "Yeah that's just the way that it goes" Yeah, we used to be in love (my love!), but now we're just in like And we broke all of our promises and baby that ain't right Because you don't know what it's like to lose it all Take it back, take it back because you don't know Take it back, take it back because you don't know what it's like to be on the receiving end of it all No! No! You were not on the receiving end of it all No! No! You were not on the receiving end of it all No! No! You were not on the receiving end of it all No! No! You were not on the receiving end of it all You beg and plead, but no one here can save you Why would they try when they can't quite save themselves? We used to be in love, but now we're just in like And we broke all of our promises and baby that ain't right Because you don't know what it's like to lose it all Take it back, take it back because you don't know Take it back, take it back because you don't know what it's like to be on the receiving end of it all No! No! You were not on the receiving end of it all No! No! You were not on the receiving end of it all No! No! You were not on the receiving end of it all No! No! You were not on the receiving end of it all You beg and plead, but no one here can save you Why would they try when they can't quite save themselves?
