HeartBreakCity

Cut me down the middle
Fucked me up a little
You said I was your queen
I tried to give you everything
And now you want your freedom
You got just what you came for
A bit of fame and fortune
And I’m no longer needed
You said it was over
Wanted it to end
Than you had the nerve to say
That we could still be friends
You had a few secrets
I was never told
Now everyone’s talking
And I’m the last to know
Now I’m in the middle of heartbreak city
'Cause I’m in the middle of a world not pretty
Your clever game got the best of me
But you ain’t gonna get the rest of me
'Cause I’m in heartbreak city
You tore me into pieces
You didn’t have no damn reason
I let you in my house
You helped yourself with everything
And left me with your mess
I curse the day we met
The memory is haunting me
I wish I could forget
You said it was over
Wanted it to end
Then you had the nerve to say
That we could still be friends
You had a few secrets
I was never told
Now everyone’s talking
And I’m the last to know
I’m in the middle of heartbreak city
Now I’m in the middle of a world not pretty
Your clever game got the best of me
But you ain’t gonna get the rest of me
'Cause I’m in heartbreak city
And it’s not that pretty
