You never knew what you wanted from me
You never knew what you wanted yourself
Now you've been drinking so as to better ignore me
Finish this chapter and put the book on the shelf

Your heart was Nevergreen
And now I feel unclean

I remain largely terrifed
I remain largely in denial
All I ever wanted was to wake up next to you
Break up next to you
Make up next to you

Your heart was Nevergreen
And now I feel unclean

It doesn't matter
It's not important
I don't even think you can exist on that level

You never cared
You never felt it
You don't even give a damn if I thought it was real

Your heart was Nevergreen
And now I feel unclean

I've fallen under the curse of May 21st
Like a needle in a smokestack - your heart can't be seen
Perpetual winter; your heart nevergreen

Your heart was Nevergreen
Poisoned by nicotine
Drowning in gasoline
Under the guillotine
Circumstances unforseen
And now I feel unclean
