Character Development

I welcomed you inside 'cause you were cold and I had blankets

I was home, you were a vagrant

You were draining, I was patient

You pocketed the keys and you felt safe behind the padlock

Punching holes into the drywall

Made me think that it was my fault

Don't say you hurt me for the better

I'm more than just your character development

An element of making you wise

I heard you say that you're a better man

But I'm over it

You're sucking me dry

I'm not your teacher, your mother, your savior, your lover, or out of my mind

I'm more than just your character development

To hell with it

I heard it through the grapevine that you're totally enlightened

All your senses have been heightened

And the ego is a tyrant

I remember trying to break up and you threw an ugly tantrum

Like someone who's never gotten a no for an answer

Don't say you hurt me for the better

I'm more than just your character development

An element of making you wise

I heard you say that you're a better man

But I'm over it

You're sucking me dry

I'm not your teacher, your mother, your savior, your lover, or out of my mind

I'm more than just your character development

To hell with it

So make your bed and lie in it

Make your bed and lie in it

So make your bed and lie in it

I won't forget what you did

I'm more than just your character development

An element of making you wise

I heard you say that you're a better man

But I'm over it

You're sucking me dry

I'm not your teacher, your mother, your savior, your lover, or out of my mind

I'm more than just your character development

To hell with it
