Selfless, Cold, And Composed Lyrics

Artist: Ben Folds Five
Album: Whatever And Ever Amen

I said what you wanted to hear
And what I wanted to say
So I will take it back
Are all the dishes intact?
Let them be broken
It's easy to be
Easy and Free
When it doesn't mean anything
You remain selfless, cold and composed
You've done me no favor
to call and be nice
Telling me I
Can take anything I like
You don't owe me to be so Polite
You've done no wrong
You've done no wrong
Get out of my sight
It's easy to be easy and free
When it doesn't mean anything
You remain
Selfless, cold, and composed
Come on baby. Now throw me
a right to the chin
Don't you stare like
You never cared
I know you did
You just smiled
like a bank teller
telling me bleakly
have a nice life

for the record if we're going to get into specifics, and i'm glad we are... it's "...blankly telling me..." not blancly.

and it's "to remain..." not "you remain..."
