I never wanna see you again with the beating of my heart witness
I say no, no, no, no, i'm done i'm done
I never wanna see you again with the beating of my heart witness
I say no, no, no, no, i'm done i'm done
I wanna get back to
I wanna get back to everything i had
Before you came around, you fucked me up,
What am i do to now
But in my mind i keep seeing you, seeing me,
And how good we used to be, used to be, used to be, used to be, used to be
I keep seeing it, seeing me
And how good we used to be, used to be, used to be, used to be, used to be
And now i'm finding i cannot deal with this
Going crazy, wanna go, leave you, want in
Say you wanna work this out boy
Don't need to beg 'cause you'll never get it again
'cause i'm better off this time this time
No not baby not this time around
Oh i'm better off this time, this time, not this time
'cause i found out yeah, i found out now
Forgiveness is that all you want from me
I won't fall into the arms of the one who turned on me
I'ts getting to dark for me to see
So i keep flashing back to when we met
We were better then, better then, better then, better then
I held you, i didn't have to share it then
Better then better then better then better then
Now my mind is taking me back to this
Too much time to think about what it is
What made us fall apart
Well don't need to beg 'cause you'll never get it again
'cause i'm better off this time, this time
No no no not this time around
Oh i'm better off this time, this time
'cause i found out you yeah i found out now
I'm better off this time this time
No baby not this time around
Oh i'm better off this time, this time, this time
'cause i found out you i found out now
Oh you know i'm better off this time, better off this time
Oh you know i'm better off this time, better off this time
Oh you know i'm better off this time, 'cause i found out, i found out now
Oh you know i'm better off this time, better off this time
Oh you know i'm better off this time, better off this time
Oh you know i'm better off this time, 'cause i found out, i found out now
