It's like we never met before
I guess that's why it takes so long
To open up the door
You never let me in
Instead you take a knife to skin
And leave blood all on the floor
When we go to war
It might not be that serious
But it's seriously boring

Ooh-ooh, you used to be my bestest friend
The perfect blend
Ooh-ooh, you used to be my bestest friend
I guess it was pretend
Oh well

(It's like you never read my mind) it's like you never read my mind
How dare you think I'd waste my time (how dare you think?)
That I would waste my time without you
Accusations of some crime
Like I needed consent from those
Who do what they accuse
Every painter needs a muse
Who's to say who wins or loses
Surely not you

Ooh-ooh, you used to be my bestest friend
The perfect blend
Ooh-ooh, you used to be my bestest friend
I guess it was pretend

If you're here to see us fall
Then you never saw nothing at all
Behind the tallest wall
Oh, oh, if everything you think is true
Remember that you're just like me, but I'm nothing like you

Everybody needs a muse
Nobody can say who wins or loses
And when I say nobody I don't mean you

You used to be my bestest friend
The perfect blend, perfect blend
You used to be my bestest friend
Now my best friend is gone
