lyrics
I keep falling back, back to old habits and I don’t know why I even have them to begin with, but I’ve have them from the beginning.
So I’m telling you now I, I don’t want 'em
You can have my soul, you can take my problems I don’t want 'em (no no no no)
I don’t want them.
Yeah I'm sayin' oh no no you cant have all of me
You’ll be gone soon, I’ve been waitin’ for this day for years now
Removing myself in the best way that I know how
Cause how else will I find a way out
You’ve got me locked in your walls
I can’t move or speak at all
So I fear this is becoming
Everything I never wanted
You to want me not to want.
But you don’t know what I need
And I’m hoping someday you’ll see
That even though you got the best of me
I still never gave you all of me.
I said I’d never go back
But here we are again
Couldn’t keep my hands clean
I wish I never went back
But the blood’s on my hands this time
So here. we. are.
Saying no no no you can’t take what you need 'cause baby oh
You don’t know what I see
From me to you baby you’ll be gone soon
So I guess we live and learn
Life is not a game where we take turns
So much for playing fair
It’s like I could die right now and you wouldn’t care
But I’d rather die than fall back to you
Cause that’s the last thing that I’d ever want to do
So say goodbye to the friend you thought you knew
Cause I’ve had enough of your shit and
I’ve had enough of you.
