Excuse me for repeating myself
but you put me through Hell
and I hate you.
Be that as it is, if you want to be friends
I probably don't have the sense
not to date you.

You're so vain
you don't know that this song is about you.
(THAT'S HOW THE LYRIC SHOULD GO.)
I must be insane
to think I might be getting through.

If I'd known you would become you,
I would've dreamed of anyone else.
If I'd known you would become you
I would've taken care of myself.
But here I am torn apart
with your words wrapped around my heart.
And talking to you is as hard
as to never speak at all.

Pardon me for believing myself,
but you know damn well
you misled me.
Be that as it may, I'd still get down and pray
for forgiveness if it would
make you want me.

It's all about you
no matter what else I'm going through.
You never lose.
But when the chips are down, you've got no excuse.

If I'd known you would become you,
I would've dreamed of anyone else.
If I'd known you would become you
I would've taken care of myself.
But here I am torn apart
with your words wrapped around my heart.
'Cause talking to you is as hard
as to never speak at all.

If I'd known you would become you,
I would've dreamed of anyone else.
If I'd known you would become you
I would've taken care of myself.
If I'd known you would become you
I would've kept my heart on the shelf.
If I'd known you would become you
I wouldn't need to know anything else.
