I swear to fucking god
This is the last song
I'll ever write about you
Maybe years from now I won't recall your name
The memory of graduation
With your arm around my waist
Will slowly fade away
Like fog on the windowpane

Day after day
To think that I was 
Ever in love with you
Makes me realize you were nothing but my

Achilles Heel to my hero
Cracked the stone so I crumble
Rust in the rain
Break down and disintegrate 
A broken knife to a gun fight
A cigarette that you can't light
A record scratched to the point I
Know what's playing but I just can't hear it right

You say that it's different but it changes constantly
The words you said they weren't true
But they were what I believed
And God how many times
Did you tell me that you loved me
The best I can hope for
Is just move on and forget
The way you knew me

Day after day
To think that I was
Ever in love with you
Makes me realize you were nothing but 
My

Achilles Heel to my hero 
Cracked the stone so I crumble
Rust in the rain
Break down and disintegrate
A broken knife to a gun fight
A cigarette that you can't light
A record scratched to the point I
Know what's playing but I just can't hear it right

I've been coming down
I've been coming down
I used to walk so proud
But I've been coming down

Achilles Heel to my hero
Cracked the stone so I crumble 
Rust in the rain
Break down and disintegrate
A broken knife to a gun fight
A cigarette that you can't light 
A record scratched to the point I
Know what's playing but I just can't hear it
Right

I've been coming down
I've been coming down
I used to walk so proud
But I've been coming down
