Don't cry to me, if you loved me You would be here with me You want me, come find me Make up your mind Should I let you fall, lose it all So maybe you can remember yourself? Can't keep believing We're only deceiving ourselves And I'm sick of the lie And you're too late Don't cry to me, if you loved me You would be here with me You want me, come find me Make up your mind Couldn't take the blame, sick with shame Must be exhausting to lose your own game, selfishly hated No wonder you're jaded You can't play the victim this time And you're too late Don't cry to me, if you loved me You would be here with me You want me, come find me Make up your mind You never call me when you're sober You only want it 'cause it's over, it's over How could I have burned paradise? How could I? You were never mine! So don't cry to me, if you loved me You would be here with me Don't lie to me, just get your things I've made up your mind!
