Lyrics

There's a place you hold I left behind, I'm finished Since you took your time, you should know why I'm quitting The secrets I hide, I do nothing You'll always deny we're going in circles But I'll override Could be winter but I burn inside In the back of my mind, I hear nothing Keep this feeling alive, I feel nothing now Then I'm in my ride Anything I left behind don't mean nothing now Can't take it back even though you wish I could If you think I'm going back, you misunderstood You cry and talk about it, baby, but it ain't no use See you wasn't lucky when I pushed Hold on, wait, you're fucking with my groove Gettin' on this plane, making moves Cry and talk about it, baby, but it ain't no use I ain't gonna sit here with your blues If it ain't your life, I don't know how to live it And it broke me down, I almost drowned It's not the ending, it's not the ending The secrets I hide, I do nothing You'll always deny that we're going in circles But I'll override Could be winter but I burn inside In the back of my mind, I hear nothing Keep this feeling alive, I feel nothing now It's a race against time when you're on the frontline Can't take it back even though you wish I could If you think I'm going back, you misunderstood You cry and talk about it, baby, but it ain't no use See you wasn't lucky when I pushed Hold away, you fucking with my groove Gettin' on this plane, making moves Cry and talk about it, baby, but it ain't no use I ain't gonna sit here with your rules I'll tell you what, there's no luck, it's all me I'm staying up, don't wait up 'cause they're betting on me Coming up with the sun around me Fire me up, now I'm up and I won't be taken Down on my luck, tell you what, it's all me I'm staying up, don't wait up 'cause they're betting on me Coming up with the sun around me Fire me up, now I'm up and there's no coming down Can't take it back even though you wish I could If you think I'm going back, you misunderstood You cry and talk about it, baby, but it ain't no use See you wasn't lucky when I pushed Hold away, you fucking with my groove Gettin' on this plane, making moves Cry and talk about it, baby, but it ain't no use I ain't gonna sit here with your blues Why are you testing me? No, no, no, I'm not the one Why are you testing me? No, no, no, I'm not the one Why are you testing me? No, no, I'm not the one Why are you testing me? No, no, no, no, I couldn't wait for you I couldn't wait for you I couldn't wait for you
