I never thought you’d say
Goodbye behind the yard

I walked home alone
Didn’t want to talk to anyone

How embarrassing that tonight
You saw me cry

Because for you, what we had
Was never special

Now everything makes more sense
You wanted to forget someone else
And that’s why you were with me

If you were thinking of her
When you looked at me

Why did you let me
Believe that you cared?

You lifted me to the sky
With false promises

I fell for you
Without a parachute

It doesn’t matter what I did
I was just your
Pastime

One day you want to see me
And the next you don’t talk to me

And suddenly you show up
At 3 in the morning

Every time I tried to leave
You’d stop me at the door

Manipulating me again
Saying that you loved me

You kissed me in secret
So no one would find out

You lied to your family
Saying I was just a friend and nothing more

If you were thinking of her
When you looked at me

Why did you let me
Believe that you cared?

You lifted me to the sky
With false promises

I fell for you
Without a parachute

If your plan was to use me
Until you got tired
Why did you let me waste
So much energy?

Was she always there
In the back of your mind and on the tip of your tongue when you lied to me?

It doesn’t matter what I did
I was just your
Pastime

I took my time but now I see
I was just your
Pastime
