Lyrics

Tryna find a way to explain this Why you can't touch me tonight? I can feel you're getting impatient But I really can't let you inside Bad, how deep the pain is Or you just couldn't believe And yes ain't good on the surface But I'm a mess, I'm a mess underneath See winter took most of my heart And Spring punched me right in the stomach Summer came looking for blood And by Autumn, I was left with nothing It took a whole damn year to repair my body It took a whole damn year It took a whole damn year to repair my body It's been a bad five years Gon' take a long, long year for me to trust somebody Gon' take a long, long year Gon' take a long, long year for me to touch somebody It's been a bad five years Not tryna do this on purpose Boy I really wish I could Don't act like you never heard this And no you haven't misunderstood While the others just wouldn't respect it Don't tell me you as well I thought we were headed for Heaven But you're about to take me back to Hell See Winter took most of my heart And Spring punched me right in the stomach Summer came looking for blood And by Autumn, I was left with nothing It took a whole damn year to repair my body It took a whole damn year It took a whole damn year to repair my body It's been a bad five years Gon' take a long, long year for me to trust somebody Gon' take a long, long year Gon' take a long, long year for me to touch somebody It's been a bad five years It took a whole damn year to repair my body It took a whole damn year It took a whole damn year to repair my body It's been a bad five years (Spring punched me right in the stomach) Gon' take a long, long year for me to trust somebody Gon' take long long year Gon' take a long, long year for me to touch somebody It's been a bad five years Bad to the liver, bad to the bones Bad to the liver, bad to the bones Bad to the liver, bad to the bones It's been a bad five years
