Lyrics:

i hold my anger in my stomach
and i’m starting to have side effects
from hating you this much

no explanation just a quote
in a magazine where you said
you only dated me for fun

and i’m paraphrasing now
but the gist of it was how
you never loved me
only in it for the sex

and I really don’t get how
you can say that and be proud of it
we both know you were in deeper than that

nobody likes a secret
and I was always yours
it’s almost been a year
and even so I still don’t know what for
