Faster

I can't talk to you
You think I'm lost inside my mind
You're like an old tattoo
And I know you'll fade in time
I'm not the girl you think you know
I'm not the girl you waited for
I'm not the one for you
It's just one thing left to do
Why don't you let me be?
'Cause I'm a million miles away
Why don't you set me free?
You don't treat me like you said
I won't tuck you in one last time
I'm taking back what is mine
For me, I belong to me
And I'm going faster, you're going backwards
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
I'm going faster, I know what I'm after
I should've been after it all along
I'm going faster
I'm going faster
That's the last black eye
I hope I ever give to you
Yeah, I had a good time
But what's a girl supposed to do?
Take the pictures off the wall
They don't look like us at all
They don't look like friends
I've got new things to begin
Why don't you let me be?
'Cause I'm a million miles away
Why don't you set me free?
I belong to me
And I'm going faster, you're going backwards
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
I hang from the ceiling, I feel what I'm feeling
I should've been feeling it all along
I'm going faster
I'm going faster
I'm going faster, you're going backwards
You're going to miss me when I'm gone
I hang from the ceiling, I feel what I'm feeling
I should've been feeling it all along
I'm going faster
I'm going faster
