Array ( [sid] => 55791 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => I'll step aside [time] => 2004-07-12 01:48:14 [hometext] => [bodytext] => How can you live a life so shady?
How can your memories be fading?

The way you live makes me sick
How could you wake up feeling good about yourself?
How could you hold a smile?
How could you respect yourself?

I wouldn't touch you with a 10 foot pole
Who knows what you've done
With these stories told

No more half-lies
No more goodbyes
No more feelings
No more wasting my time

What's said has been said
What's been done has been done
You're not fighting for me
I'm not your only one

No more living 2 lives
No more secrets to hide
No more empty I love you's
No more hello's or hi's

I feel sorry for myself
For trusting in you (and trusting myself)
For letting my heart believe
That you loved me too

I'll step aside
I won't get in your way
I'll watch you ruin your life
And watch your whole life decay
