The Cycle

We manage to do this every time

But I never cared 'cause you were mine

But I'm done pretendin' like I'm fine

'Cause ain't nothing fine

Ah, listen to me

'Cause I been a sucker for your words

I kept lettin' you say all that shit 'cause you was hurt

But what more can I do?

I got my breaking point too

You'll be forgettin' I'm human, baby

Remember when you would ask if I was doin' okay?

I would lie to your face and tell you I was happy

Knowin' I was so close to my own insanity

Lord, what happened to me?

Almost got control of me

Ay, runnin' round, turnin' down all the things I that coulda done

Ay, gave you all the light that I had inside of me and more

Ay, figured I give you my heart and leave it all on the floor

Ay, but that was my fault

'Cause I would keep on lettin' you

Touch it, tease it

Please it, hug it

Love me, take it

Make it, fake it

Take my heart, but don't break it, baby

Taste it, oh, baby, don't waste it

I'm tryna save it

But you played it

Any sensation

But I couldn't get it from you now or then

I guess some night, on Halloween

'Cause I knew you wasn't gonna do it to me

I got too used to you blamin' me

For all of your insecurities

Remember when you would ask if I was doin' okay?

I would lie to your face and tell you I was happy

Knowin' I was so close to my own insanity

Lord, what happened to me?

Almost got control of me

Ay, runnin' round, turnin' down all the things I that coulda done

Ay, gave you all the light that I had inside of me and more

Ay, figured I give you my heart and leave it all on the floor

Ay, but that was my fault

'Cause I would keep on lettin' you

Touch it, tease it

Please it, love it

Hug me, take it

Make it, fake it

Take my heart, but don't break it, baby

Taste it, oh, baby, don't waste it

I'm tryna save this

But you played it

Need a sensation

But I couldn't get it from you now

Or then

Ay

Said, ah, yeah, ay

Ah, yeah, yeah

Ay
