lyrics

I’m on the ropes, praying for something better
I’m sick of feeling alone; brandish that scarlet letter

You thought you could fix me
But I wasn’t broken at all
And I thought you would wise up
But I got sick of waiting for you

Bet you expected I would be back by now
With open arms, open arms
You cut me every time that you took me down
And left me scarred, left me scarred
I wish I had known right from the moment I met you
I’d feel more alone with you than without you

I’m catching glimpses of you in every dream I’m having
And so I don’t go to sleep unless I’m drunk and it’s becoming a habit

You told me you’d hold me
Then locked me in the hall outside your room
I thought you were my one true love
But I was falling for you way too soon

We fall into the trap that we set for ourselves
But we’re blind to the truth, acting like we never fell
Why do we never learn that love can lead us astray?
We just chase what we want while what we need fades away

I meant it when I said that you had my heart
But you went too far; we went too far
