I swore I’d never text you back
Burned the bridge, lit up the track
Painted red like the warning signs
Girl’s gotta run when she sees the crimes
Friends say “he’s trouble,” I say “true”
But baby, I’m a crime scene too
Ohhh— ooohhh, here I go again,
Echoes in the hallway, calling out your name
Said I’m free, I meant it—till I smelled your sin, mmm
Guess I’m no better than I’ve ever been
I make my grand escape, I scrub the screen
Only to land...
Back at the scene**
I told my girls “I’ve cut the ties”
Deleted pics and pretty lies, yeah
Then you walked in with that damn grin,
Like we never did what we both did
Love’s not jail, but still I plead
Guilty for the way you bleed
Ohhh— ooohhh guess I’ve slipped again, mmmm
Footprints in the ash, I swear I won’t pretend
I said I’m wise, I’m done, I’m strong, I’m queen
Till your shadow hits my silver screen
I swear I’ve changed—till you look at me
Then I’m right back...
Back at the scene
I moved on
(Almost...)
I let go
(Almost...)
You’re the ghost I don’t believe in
But I still set a place for**
Ohhh—no alibi,
Dancing in the dark where the angels cry
I claim I’ve grown, I let you in
Repeat the verse, commit the sin
I’ve walked away, I’ve wiped it clean—
But I always end up...
Back at the scene
