Slow down Slow down
I lived a life with no regrets till you came around
Your lost I'm found
You had a hold on me
But now it's slippin away

You used me
Never would I thought you'd try to
Lie and deceive me
I'm sure you thought I'd be easy
You had a chance but now there's nothing 
That you can call your own

[Chorus]
Why does it feel like
I have been the only one 
Who stopped and swam
Up the river
If everything you said to me was a lie then
I really think that I beg to differ

No time I'm gone
You had your chance now let me show you the way around
Your loss mine now
I let you call it once
You'll never do it again

You fooled me
Once and then you should have figured
Now there's just one space
That you can fill but it's empty
You'll never find a place that you can call your own now

[Chorus]

I'll never understand
I'll never understand
I'll never understand
I don't f***in understand why

You used me
Never would I thought you'd try to lie and deceive me
I'm sure you thought I'd be easy

Why does it feel like
I have been the only one 
Who stopped and swam
Up the river
If everything you said to me was a lie then
I really think that I beg to differ
I'm gone
