Character Development

Oh, ooh, ah, ah, ah

I welcomed you inside 'cause you were cold and I had blankets
I was home, you were a vagrant
You were draining, I was patient
You pocketed the keys and you felt safe behind the padlock
Punching holes into the drywall
Made me think that it was my fault

Don't say you hurt me for the better

I'm more than just your character development
An element of making you wise
I heard you say that you're a better man
But I'm over it
You're sucking me dry
I'm not your teacher, your mother, your savior, your lover, or out of my mind
I'm more than just your character development
To hell with it
Oh, ooh, oh, oh, oh, oh

I heard it through the grapevine that you're totally enlightened
All your senses have been heightened
And the ego is a tyrant
I remember trying to break up and you threw an ugly tantrum
Like someone who's never gotten a no for an answer

Don't say you hurt me for the better

I'm more than just your character development
An element of making you wise
I heard you say that you're a better man
But I'm over it
You're sucking me dry
I'm not your teacher, your mother, your savior, your lover, or out of my mind
I'm more than just your character development
To hell with it
Oh, ooh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, ooh, oh, oh, oh, oh

So make your bed and lie in it
Make your bed and lie in it
So make your bed and lie in it
I won't forget what you did

I'm more than just your character development
An element of making you wise
I heard you say that you're a better man
But I'm over it
You're sucking me dry
I'm not your teacher, your mother, your savior, your lover, or out of my mind
I'm more than just your character development
To hell with it
Oh, ooh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, ooh, oh, oh, oh, oh
