YOU DON’T GET ME

(Verse 1)
I got ready for a promise
You were never gonna keep
Lit a candle for your chaos
While you disappeared on me

Again 

Every word you said was shifting
Every story out of line
I kept trying to believe you
While you blurred the truth and time

(Pre-Chorus)
You don’t break me then rewrite me
Like I’m something you can use

(Chorus)
You don’t get to call me cruel
When I’m bleeding out for you
You don’t get to twist my care
Into something that’s not there

You don’t get to come and go
Like I’m someone you can own
No more waiting, no more warning
You don’t get me anymore

(Verse 2)
You were singing like you’re fine
While I’m pacing in my head
Now you’re “sick” and now you’re distant
Now I’m blamed for what you said

And they’re asking where you are
And I’m breaking trying to lie
’Cause I don’t even know you
But I stayed and I stayed and I tried

(Pre-Chorus)
You don’t get to tear me open
Just to tell me I’m the wound

(Chorus)
You don’t get to call me cruel
When I’m bleeding out for you
You don’t get to twist my care
Into something that’s not there

You don’t get to come and go
Like I’m someone you can own
No more waiting, no more warning
You don’t get me anymore

(Bridge – quiet, cold)
I was soft
You made me steel
Now I’m done
Learning how to feel for you

No more saving
No more proof
You don’t get
The best of me… and you

(Outro)
I got ready for a promise
Now I’m done with what you’re not

You don’t get me
You don’t get me
You don’t get me anymore
