Confidants, Constituents, Comrades

Did you think I'd just lay here in waiting?
I don't think you even miss me
Can't you see I've been debating?
Of course not, you're not with me

You got a man at your side
So it's easy to hide
You got family and friends
Is this really how it ends?

All I know is you were mine
Confidants, constituents, comrades
I thought we'd be just fine
Make it through the decades
But now I know
Now I can see
It was all just a show
And now it's just me

Did you think I wouldn't notice?
Did you think I wouldn't care?
I thought that you would notice
I thought that you would care

Now it's stabbing me in the chest
I don't know what to do
I'm tired of being put to the test
And it's all because of you

All I know is you were mine
Confidants, constituents, comrades
I thought we'd be just fine
Make it through the decades
But now I know
Now I can see
It was all just a show
And now it's just me

I wish I just knew how
We got here, got this way
I wish I just knew now,
Will this be the rest of our days?

I love you and you know that
But I am not your welcome mat
I miss the us we used to share
You've made our bed, I'll lay there

All I know is you were mine
Confidants, constituents, comrades
I thought we'd be just fine
Make it through the decades
But now I know
Now I can see
It was all just a show
And now it's just me
