I guess I should’ve known damn better
It wasn’t like you were gonna ever forget her
All these stupid games that you play
Just be sure that you’ll never get away
And now you tell me I was never what you wanted
And all my feelings, they’re all being haunted
Why do I make the same mistakes?
And my mind just keep me wide awake, ooh
Tell me why I’m acting crazy
Picking petals from daisies
Oh, does he love me or not? (Or not?)
Or not?
And the clouds can draw your face
But the wind just blows it away
Oh, not my happy ending at all (At all)
But I’ll try to get you off my mind
You haunt me day and night
I feel you by my side
The things we left behind are gone
Yeah, and I know you never really cared about me
And you just broke my heart effortlessly
And all the single times you told I was a star
Now I realize it was all a lie
And no matter what I do
I come back to you
But now it won’t be the same
I guess I should’ve known damn better
It wasn’t like you were gonna ever forget her
All these stupid games that you play
Just be sure that you’ll never get away
And now you tell me I was never what you wanted
And all my feelings, they’re all being haunted
Why do I make the same mistakes?
And my mind just keep me wide awake
And I feel so lost
‘Cause you’re not here
To hold me in your arms
I guess I should’ve known damn better
It wasn’t like you were gonna ever forget her
All these stupid games that you play
Just be sure that you’ll never get away
Get away
