lyrics

Late that night on Wednesday you said you were somebody's girl.
It came as no surprise.
I was never meant to rule the world.
All I ever wanted was the truth and nothing else.
So I didn't yell.
No, I didn't yell.

I'm locking my door and I'm crying my eyes out.
I'm crying my eyes out.
I won't get to sleep tonight.
Try not to be so mean to that next unlucky guy.
I'm crying my eyes out.

You said you'd never hurt me.
That was your first lie.
I assumed you really loved me but I'm just another fool.
I handed you my heart and you ignored my generosity.
I could never take it back.
No, I will never take it back.

I'm locking my door and I'm crying my eyes out.
I'm crying my eyes out.
No, I won't get to sleep tonight.
Try not to be so mean to that next unlucky guy
So he won't have to cry so much
And he can get to sleep at night.

I'm sick of this.
I'm sick of truth.
I'm sick of love.
I'm sick of trying.
I'm sick of life.
I'm sick of trust.
I'm sick of hope.
I'm sick of you.
Yeah, it hurts too much.
So why waste my breath on you?
