It was just my mistake

Thinking you cared

It was just my mistake

Thinking you'd be there

That you'd be by my side

And that you wouldn't lie

My mistake

It was just my false hope

Thinking we'd last, yeah

It was just my false hope

Forgot all your pests

All those girls you denied

Smashed up hearts

Hung out to dry

I know it's wrong

Hanging on too long

I know it's wrong

Hanging on too long

But I beat 'em all

Hanging on too long

I was a fool for you

Right from the start

Yeah

I was a fool for you

Hoping for a spark

For some kind of sign

That you would be mine

I know it's wrong, I do

Hanging on too long

And I know it's wrong

Hanging on too long

My heart was clutching

To what felt right

My head was hoping

It could put up a fight

I know it's wrong

Hanging on too long

And I know it's wrong

Hanging on too long

And I need to move on

I'm hanging on too long

I know it's wrong

Hanging on too long

And I know it's wrong

Hanging on too long
