Think I just woke up from a bad dream
Problem when it started I was 18
I let you into everything I know
And got lost in the battle
You only ever wanted me when I left
Told me that you loved me then you'd forget
I got good at never being okay
When I realized it was too late
(And) after all this time I'm getting out
And you could write a book with what you found
Cause I'm only twenty something
But you got it multiplied
Cause you had me calculating every day and all night
And here's to your second chances
And all of your twisted lies
Tell em all how'd you do it, how to ruin a life
Where'd you learn to do what you did to me
Did you go to college, get a degree?
Guess all you really needed was my time
Cus practice makes perfect, right?
I don't need to get you back I found my own way out
Maybe I am better off with what I know right now
Cause I'm only twenty something
But you got it multiplied
Cause you had me calculating every day and all night
And here's to your second chances
And all of your twisted lies
Tell em all how'd you do it, how to ruin a life
First you make me trust you
Then you make me cry
Number three convince me I'm the reason we fight
Number four I'm sorry
But truth is number five
Now I really hate you, and I'll hate you for life
Cause I'm only twenty something
But you got it multiplied
Cause you had me calculating every day and all night
And here's to your second chances
And all of your twisted lies
Tell em all how'd you do it, how to ruin a life
(Ha ha how to ruin a, ha ha how to ruin a life)
I'm all you need to prove it, how to ruin a life
(Ha ha how to ruin a, ha ha how to ruin a life)
Now I really hate you, and I'll hate you for life
