I saw a picture of your new man
I saw him givin' you "hover hand"
I took the credit for all the ways I made you blinded
I tarred and feathered the space between it
I know I'm not a crestfallen guy
I know I'm not your white knight
I'm just a king for a day
I promise it won't stay that way
I stuck around for the aftermath
I placed a mattress on top of the bath
I hid away from your thoughts and prayers
Swam all the way to an overpass
And now I'm under a waterfall
And everything's so beautiful
And with the water I'm breathing in
The reason for it came clearer when:
I locked the breaks
We lost control
The sudden fall
Into a shallow creek
Is the only thing I recall
Then you went away
You went away
