Closing Cost
Capstan Lyrics

I heard everything you said through that white wooden door.
I was able to hear your every word as I listened outside the bathroom door as you cried over him.

Crying over him falling apart on the bathroom floor.
You were crying over him as he fell apart on the bathroom floor.

Your words spun excuses but were sold out by your eyes.
Your words were full of excuses but your eyes betrayed the truth.

I'm nothing more to you than a consolation prize.
You see me as nothing more than a second choice, someone to turn to when he's not available.

And I've sensed revenge though the plot in me tends to steer clear of tying up loose ends.
I've felt a desire for revenge, but I try to avoid causing unnecessary drama.

I refuse to remain your mess.
I don't want to be a part of your chaos anymore.

I've been buried six feet deep alive in my own unrest.
I've been struggling with my own internal turmoil, feeling trapped and unable to escape.

Filled with emptiness, I'm penniless, over-drafted trying to impress.
I feel hollow and alone, constantly trying to impress others despite the fact that I don't have the financial means to do so.

I guess I'll just always stay second best.
I've resigned myself to the fact that I'll never be first in your eyes.

You took my breath away, and I don't ever want it back again.
You left me speechless, but I don't want that feeling again.

I've always had a cheap heart your bank account could always spend.
You were always able to buy my affection and love with your money.

They say a picture's worth a thousand words. I scream at yours and still stay unheard.
I look at pictures of us and try to express my pain, but no one hears me.

Maybe I'm just blind and your just deaf, or this is all just wasted breath.
Maybe I don't see the truth, or you don't hear my cries, or maybe this is all for nothing.
