You're killing me

Oh, hey. You wanted your heart ripped out of your chest and that in song form? Well, luckily for you, I've got something that I think qualifies as the why you get after a breakup you didn't instigate... and sometimes even for those as well.
How Come You Don't Want Me
I can't say that I'm sorry for getting so ahead of myself
I can't say that I'm sorry for loving you and hating myself
I had nothing to show you
I had nothing to hold you down
It's killing me to walk away
How come you don't want me now?
Why don't you want to wait this out?
How come you always lead me on
Never take my call, hear me out?
Why don't you wanna win me now?
Why don't you want to show me off?
Tell me why you couldn't try
Couldn't try and keep me here
I see you by my house walking with a different girl
I see you by my house talking with a different girl
She's got nothing to show you
She's got nothing to hold you down
You're killing me, walk away
One day soon I won't be the one who waits on you
Some day soon I won't be the one who waits on you
Personally, I believe that if you have never been either physically or emotionally curled up on the floor crying and wondering why don't you love me anymore, you are either the luckiest bastard on the face of the planet or you haven't done something right. This isn't to say that I think this condition should be permanent, nor do I think it has to mean you've fallen in love more than once. You could be the person who got them back and the world is sunshine and rainbows, possibly with a side order of lollipops.
But I think everyone kind of needs that moment of why otherwise you're going to end up saying or doing something that could get you hit with a frying pan and odds are good that jury is going to be filled with people who did get their hearts smashed so they might say that the person who panned you was completely justified. In the right country the jury might pan you if you survived. Y'know, just because.
Random: Shortest song on the album.
I wonder when you feel like an adult and not so much like a kid.
We're a little over halfway done. You may rejoice or weep. Possibly both?
