Snitch Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
i think about the times we spent
i thought you were the only one
but now i'm glad that you are gone
i remember days you hated me
i remember nights when you were weak
i remember times but now i see
so the time has come to finally quit
so here i sit
my glass is almost empty now
i'm watching all the nice girls in the crowd
but i don't care
so i swear i'll never come back
and i'm sure you're feeling better on your own
by the way your friends are stupid
'cause they told me that you'd never ever stay
with a guy like me
so i finally found my way back home
and it feels so good to be alone
i'm on my own
in the end i treated you like shit
so the time has come to finally quit
so here i sit
i know it's hard to get over this
so please forgive
and please try to understand
i'm still your friend
till the end
