I'm getting stuck, I'm taking a break
Yeah, I'm leaving, baby, I can't take it
I've had enough of more of the same
Maybe you should change the way I'm thinking

It take consistency (Ooh, to have you stay with me)
But now you're falling flat
I know I'm better than that
Don't know what I could do (Ooh, to catch another view)
Nobody's gonna say
That this is worth all the pain

So won't you give it up?
I'm not gonna wait
You start to remember
All the stupid bets that you ever made
Dreaming forever of
Where the light used to lay
And baby, won't you try to forget
The things you said when you went away

I'm on the up and back into view
Am I too much crazy? Think I could be
I've seen enough, don't you feel it too?
'Cause the way you hate is still a blessing

I'm not an animal (I'm not your wrecking ball)
It's not a metaphor
Want you to see how I bleed
So drop your camouflage (ooh, it's just a dumb façade)
That you keep you're putting on
I've got you down on your knees

So won't you give it up?
I'm not gonna wait
You start to remember
All the stupid bets that you ever made
Dreaming forever of
Where the light used to lay
And baby, won't you try to forget
The things you said when you went away

It's hard to remember, harder to forget
Put a picture of you on the internet
Somewhere in the drama, we got left behind
It's just another bad end to the storyline
Tell me the truth, are you coming home?
You're just an underpaid extra that never shows
Just a figment of the plans that I never had
And I hope that the next one won't be so bad

So hard to give it up
I'm not gonna wait
You start to remember
All the stupid bets that you ever made
Dreaming forever of (dreaming forever)
Where the light used to lay
And baby, won't you try to forget
The things you said when you went away
