You're just a figment in my mind,
and if I close my mind, my eyes,
then I could leave you far behind.
There's no reality to bind
my heart to yours, why think it, why?
You're just a figment in my mind.
I won't feel guilty that I signed
my love to you, by oath, to tie,
'cause I could leave you far behind.
I could respect your love in kind,
but why remain with just one guy?
You're just a figment in my mind.
You don't exist, I've re-aligned
my heart to many other guys,
'cause I could leave you far behind,
and so I did, and now I find
that should you live or should you die,
you're just a figment in my mind,
and I am leaving you behind.
