She told me that I’d never find someone better
’Til I severed everything she planted in my head
The further and further I distance myself
Can’t help but see that I’d be better off dead
I can’t get enough, she’s wrapped around my neck
Thought I had it all, but now I feel sickened
I feel sickened
I bet you thought you had me, almost got your wish
Thought you’d break me, almost got your wish
I never wanted, I never wanted this
You’ll be the last one, the last one that I’d miss
Thought you had me, I’m your greatest almost
Isn’t it funny how you told me everything
That I wanted to hear too bad it was all for show
So now I see that you’re miserable, sad you made it so difficult
And now you’ve lost control
I can’t get enough, she’s wrapped around my neck
Thought I had it all but now I feel sickened
I feel sickened
And I bet you thought you had me, almost got your wish
Thought you’d break me, almost got your wish
I never wanted, I never wanted this
You’ll be the last one, the last one that I’d miss
Thought you had me, I’m your greatest almost
And all the time that I wasted feels so long ago
I’m so glad that I faced it
Lesson learned, wouldn’t change it
Sometimes our hearts get the best of us
Sometimes we chase the lust, and it gets the best of us
Thought you had me, almost got your wish
Thought you’d break me
Thought you had me, almost got your wish
Thought you'd break me, almost got your wish
I never wanted, I never wanted this
You’ll be the last one, the last one that I’d miss
Thought you had me, I’m your greatest almost
I’m your greatest almost, I’m your greatest almost
I’m your
