[Verse 1]
Came here for nothing
Came here for nothing
Now you're gone
Oh, I'm better off alone
I was picking up the pieces
Trying to iron out the creases
When you got up and left me here
You tried so hard to disappear
[Verse 2]
I could have told you
I don't have the strength to hold you
But I'll take your weight
I'll take your company and your hate
Do you remember?
I tried to put myself together
But you couldn't take the notion
You came in like an ocean
[Chorus]
And you left me crawling on my bedroom floor
I tried so hard, but you still wanted more
I couldn't let you drown, so I let you drift away
You're tearing me apart because you didn't have the guts to stay
To stay
[Verse 3]
I was fighting for my sanity
While you fought for what was left of me
I couldn't find the best part of my mind
'Cause you crumpled up my brain
Driving me insane
Nothing feels the same
I'm falling down like rain
[Chorus]
And you left me crawling on my bedroom floor
I tried so hard, but you still wanted more
I couldn't let you drown, so I let you drift away
You're tearing me apart because you didn't have the guts to stay
[Instrumental]
[Chorus]
And you left me crawling on my bedroom floor
I tried so hard, but you still wanted more
I couldn't let you drown, so I let you drift away
You're tearing me apart, because you didn't have the guts to
[Outro]
I came here for nothing
I came here for nothing
Now you're gone
I came here for nothing
I came here for nothing
Now you're gone
I came here for nothing
I came here for nothing
