Mistake

You told me not to act like a man
But that's what I am
Yeah, you can't tame nature
You begged me not to be such a bo
But I'm not your toy
You can go find someone else
Who cares?
Who cares?
Thinks she has to please you
Who gives a damn?
Whose only end is to appease you?
Remember when I ran through the halls
Just hearing your call?
It was never urgent.
I recommend you find a machine
To come to your screams
When your passion is not crying wolf
Who cares?
Who cares...
Who thinks he has to please you?
Who gives a damn...
Whose only end is to appease you?
Mistake
It's not my fault
Mistake
All this time
All this time
All this time
I was wishing I could finally say goodbye
I got to stop myself right now
Before I give in to you
'Cause you're no good for me
You know it, too
You better leave and go find another
Who cares?
Who cares...
Who thinks she has to please you?
Who gives a damn...
Whose only end is to appease you?
Mistake
It's not my fault
