lyrics
You ain't trying
Some things are undeniable
The secret is you were lying
And I should've waited for somebody else
I thought you were great but you're out for yourself
And now I'm awake I'm not under your spell
I take back the way that I felt
You let go
And now I see that from the get-go
I should've been more respectful
Of my own fears but now I know
And I should've waited for somebody else
I thought you were great but you're out for yourself
And now I'm awake I'm not under your spell
I take back the way that I felt
And I should've waited for somebody else
I thought you were great but you're out for yourself
And now I'm awake I'm not under your spell
I take back the way that I felt
Some things are undeniable
The secret is you were lying
And I should've waited for somebody else
I thought you were great but you're out for yourself
And now I'm awake I'm not under your spell
I take back the way that I felt
You let go
And now I see that from the get-go
I should've been more respectful
Of my own fears but now I know
And I should've waited for somebody else
I thought you were great but you're out for yourself
And now I'm awake I'm not under your spell
I take back the way that I felt
And I should've waited for somebody else
I thought you were great but you're out for yourself
And now I'm awake I'm not under your spell
I take back the way that I felt
