We said that we would try
Try and make it work
That ain't the truth it was a lie
We do this to each other
Fighting every single night
Every single night around in circles
But it had to end this way
Coincidence and fate
The cracked foundation of our shame
We did this to each other
Now I’m throwing up my hands
Waving my flag cos this ain't worth it
And I’ve got my bags packed
And I am not going back there
It's been a hot mess
On your cold shoulder
I wish you the best oh
No I don’t
They say ignorance is bliss
I think I do believe 'em
I was blinded by a kiss
Don't think I ever saw you
Maybe way back then
Back when we were kids
But that ain't now
So I’ll throw my blinders to the ground
Light a cigarette and say farewell without a sound
Don’t think I ever knew you
So I'm going all the way
Stay the hell out of my way
Cos you ain't worth it
And I’ve got my bags packed
And I ain't going back there
It's been a hot mess
On your cold shoulder
I wish you the best oh
No I don’t
