Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm trying to tell you, I'm trying to know you
I'm dying to show you, fighting to get you
Soon as you got me, you go and drop me
It's cool when you burn me, I love how you hurt me
[PreChorus]
Oh, no, I'll never let you go
Oh, no, I hate that I need you so
[Chorus]
It's not what you said, it's the way you say it
It's not what you did, it's the way you do it
Sick and tired of needing your affection
I chose to be lonely than live without your attention
[Verse 2]
I scratch your sweet name right into my skin
You left me bleeding, but I couldn't give in
I swallowed the poison to get infected
Give back my heart that your body rejected
[PreChorus]
Oh, no, I'll never let you go
Oh, no, I hate that I need you so
[Chorus]
It's not what you said, it's the way you say it
It's not what you did, it's the way you do it
Sick and tired of needing your affection
I chose to be lonely than live without your attention
[Bridge]
I'm standing in the pain that's smothering me
It's more becoming, my own brother can see
That I'm starving for your love?
And I need attention or I'm gonna die
[Chorus]
It's not what you said, it's the way you say it
It's not what you did, it's the way you do it
Sick and tired of needing your affection
I chose to be lonely (Lonely)
[Chorus]
It's not what you said, it's the way you say it
It's not what you did, it's the way you do it
Sick and tired of needing your affection
I chose to be lonely than live without your attention, attention
