I'm sick of getting burned when my heart's on my sleeve If you never put me first then you aren't what I need I'm searching all my life for the one that's right for me But I'm let down all the time and I feel like it repeats And I hate the way it feels but I always get past it All that's left to say is things were fun while they'd lasted Hate it cause I always put my eggs in one basket When I start to fall I'm always bracing for a crash since Everyone that I let get closer Waits until my guard is lowered Shoot me once before I notice They shoot more times and start reloading And I try so hard then I fall down flat Then I get back up and I come straight back Gotta reach for stars til' I make my catch Gotta find someone 'fore I fade to black cause I gave you all my love but you couldn't relate You had me feeling dumb when you threw it away I know a day will come that you'll be falling from grace And I won't be the one who's gonna fix your mistakes, no I don't really need that You're just like a drug to me but I ain't gonna relapse You made something clear to me and finally I see that I just need somebody in my life that's loving me back But you couldn't relate You had me feeling dumb when you threw it away I know a day will come that you'll be falling from grace And I won't be the one who's gonna fix your mistakes, no I don't really need that You're just like a drug to me but I ain't gonna relapse You made something clear to me and finally I see that I just need somebody in my life that's loving me back Is that too much to ask? I'm sick and tired of wearing a mask Don't want somebody that's just gonna want me If I'm being someone that's part of an act Tried to be someone I thought people liked But it wasn't the truth and I felt like a hack I had identity crises a lot and got sick of it all so it's all in the past I need a love that don't take any effort I need a tie that'll never be severed One that be leaving me high as a kite And all warm up inside like the sleeves of my sweater That'll be there just to make me feel better When I get down and I feel under pressure Someone that got me no matter the weather Someone that got me forever and ever The memories are bittersweet If you really want the truth, I still wish you didn't leave Now I'm waking up alone like the way I fall asleep And I see you coming home, but that's only in my dreams Right place, wrong time That's the story of my life Can't make things right When you put me to the side And I wish I knew that everything we had was made of plastic Now it's like the fire in my heart has gone to ashes I gave you all my love but you couldn't relate You had me feeling dumb when you threw it away I know a day will come that you'll be falling from grace And I won't be the one who's gonna fix your mistakes, no I don't really need that You're just like a drug to me but I ain't gonna relapse You made something clear to me and finally I see that I just need somebody in my life that's loving me back But you couldn't relate You had me feeling dumb when you threw it away I know a day will come that you'll be falling from grace And I won't be the one who's gonna fix your mistakes, no I don't really need that You're just like a drug to me but I ain't gonna relapse You made something clear to me and finally I see that I just need somebody in my life that's loving me back
