I’m beaten up and bruised inside
Never forgetting how you lied
Took my heart and ran away
Maybe you’ll text me back today
If you don’t I won’t care
I think I’ve had my share
Of your drama and your pain
Life goes on I’m switching lanes
I keep on acting like I hate you
I just don’t know what to do
Cause you used me as a rebound
But baby I know that deep down
You still care about me
And it’s hard to unsee
Everything we’ve done
What have we become
Absolute strangers
Fear my life’s in danger
Filling my lungs with smoke
Holding back tears as I choke
I can’t seem to find my mind
I’d be lying if I told you I were fine
Used to feel like you were always there
Used to make you smile and everytime I’d stare
I miss you and the things we’d discuss
But now it feels like there’s an ocean between us
I’m broken, lost, left without a clue
It’s such a shame you’ve left me black and blue
