Somebody told me not to mess around with you

And I almost listened to them

They said, That girl, she’ll make you feel like you’re on top of the world, man

But she’ll never make you feel like you

So I let you turn me into what I thought I liked

And became the man I knew I never would

But now I’m finding I can’t say to you the words that feel right

And I’ve become someone who’s quite misunderstood

Cause every time I say something (hey)

It’s like I never gave you nothing (hey)

And all I get is I know, I know, I know, I know, I know

So if you wanna remain a thing (hey)

Uh, then don’t make me complain again (hey)

Cause that’s how it goes, it goes, it goes, it goes, it goes

I tried to get over it but that ain’t right

Thinking about who I used to be just keeps me up at night

There’s something to be said about starting new

But that only works if you got nothing left to hold onto

And now I think about the words you say

And how I loved you so much yesterday

But now I’ve woken up and realized

That all this time I’ve been under my own disguise

Cause every time I say something (hey)

It’s like I never gave you nothing (hey)

And all I get is I know, I know, I know, I know, I know

So if you wanna remain a thing (hey)

Uh, then don’t make me complain again (hey)

Cause that’s how it goes, it goes, it goes, it goes, it goes

Ooh ahh

Ooh ahh

Ooh ahh

Ahhh
