Thanks A Lot

Thanks a lot for quiting early
can't you see the damage that you caused
can't you see my heart's been broken
i just wanna know what went wrong.

You drive me crazy 80 percent of the time
Im so uneasy about it
I keep replaying it in my mind
please tell me what went wrong
tell me what I didn't do right
because this drives me crazy
and I dont wanna end with a fight.

Thanks a lot for quiting early
it makes me think if you were trying to save me
from the boy you knew yo could be

Did she really care about you that much
to give her whole self to you
just to see you stay
I guess Jenna learned her lesson
because you still left anyways

The author's comments:
this is a really special song to me because its about a past relationship that ended pretty abruptly, and I wasn't really given a reason why... he left me, and then went to this girl i didnt really know at the time, Jenna (yes that is her real name), and pretty much like it says, he was going to leave her too, but she gave herself to him, and he still left... Now knowing Jenna, she is super sweet and I really like her. but now im just glad that he left and didn't try to pull something like that with me... I did write a guitar part to this, Im really proud of this song..
