I think back to when you were mine

I think about you, oh

I think about you

Even with someone new by my side

I think about you

I still think about you

Out with friends, I see your face

You start to pull me in

Say you're in a better place

I start to let you in

Why'd I have to love something bad?

Can't you go and hurt someone new?

Why protect myself to give it all back?

How am I back to square one with you?

Oh, I've lost myself

In a vicious hell

Of thinking you'll change

When I know that you never do

Why'd I have to go back to you?

Why'd I have to fall for someone cruel?

I tell myself that it'll work this time

And I believe it, oh, I believe it

The only one who can't detect your lies

I believe 'em, oh, I believe 'em

Out with her now, changed your mind

And everyone can see

You're trying to run, but you can't hide

That she looks just like me

(You know she does)

Why'd I have to love something bad?

Can't you go and hurt someone new?

Why protect myself to give it all back?

How am I back to square one with you?

Oh, I've lost myself

In a vicious hell

Of thinking you'll change

When I know that you never do

Why'd I have to go back to you?

Why'd I have to fall for someone cruel?

I want you to know

I want you to know

I want you to know

I want you to know

That I'm gonna be just fine

I want you to know

I want you to know

I want you to know

I want you to know

That you have no place in my life

Why'd I have to love something bad?

Can't you go and hurt someone new?

Why protect myself to give it all back?

How am I back to square one with you?

Oh, I've lost myself

In a vicious hell

Of thinking you'll change

When I know that you never do

Why'd I have to go back to you?

Why'd I have to fall for someone cruel?
