Now I'm here

Cause I'm the one who knows what scares you
I'm the one who loves you best 
I'm the thirteenth at the table
I'm the uninvited guest 
I'm the Banquo at your banquet 
I'm the cuckoo in your nest
I'm your fifteen-stone first-footer 
I'm the uninvited guest 

Verse 2 (as before)
=======
I was there when you said insincere "I love you's" 
To a woman who wasn't your wife 
And I fronted you the money 
That you ran away and blew
On the biggest regret of your life 

Chorus (as before)
======
Cause I'm the one who knows what scares you 
I'm the who loves you best 
I'm the thirteenth at the table
I'm the uninvited guest 
I'm the Banquo at your banquet 
I'm the cuckoo in your nest 
I'm your New Year's resolution 
I'm the uninvited guest

Break (no guitar)
=====
I'm the face you hoped you'd never see 
But always knew you would 
I'm the one thing you knew you shouldn't do 
But did because you could 

*(w/Guitar Part) at this point

I'm the *evil in your bloodstream 
I'm the rash upon your skin 
And you made a big mistake all right 
The day you let me in 
And you can fly to the other side of the world 
You know you'll only find
I've reserved the seat behind you 
We can talk about old times
