*(Verse 1)*
It’s half past eleven, and I’m still lost in you
Thinking ‘bout the good times, and the wreckage too
Round and round, I keep retracing my mistakes
‘Cause all I wanna do—oh, all I wanna do—
Is be close to you
*(Pre-Chorus)*
But I can’t keep pretending
Can’t let you fester in my heart anymore (No more, no more)
*(Chorus)*
I’ve let you go (Let you go)
I’ve let you come back (Come back)
I let myself believe your lies again (Again, again)
So tell me—please tell me—
How do you seem so fine with this?
When you made me believe I mattered (Ooooh)
That I was someone you cared for
*(Post-Chorus – Backup Vocals: "I hate this feeling")*
I hate, hate, hate this feeling (Hate this feeling)
I hate, hate, hate this feeling (Ooooh, yeah)
*(Verse 2)*
Memories linger, like echoes in my chest
Your words were a promise, but they fade just like the rest
I know I should be stronger, know I should move on
But something ‘bout your touch—oh, something ‘bout your touch—
Still keeps me holding on
*(Pre-Chorus)*
But I can’t keep pretending
Can’t let you fester in my heart anymore (No more, no more)
*(Chorus)*
I’ve let you go (Let you go)
I’ve let you come back (Come back)
I let myself believe your lies again (Again, again)
So tell me—please tell me—
How do you seem so fine with this?
When you made me believe I mattered (Ooooh)
That I was someone you cared for
*(Bridge – soft, building up)*
Maybe I was just a moment (Just a moment)
A name you learned to say (Ooooh)
But you were my everything
And I—I was just a game
*(Final Chorus – Bigger, more intense)*
I’ve let you go (Let you go)
I’ve let you come back (Come back)
I let myself believe your lies again (Again, again)
So tell me—please tell me—
How do you seem so fine with this?
When you made me believe I mattered (Ooooh)
That I was someone you cared for
*(Outro – fading, haunting harmonies)*
I hate, hate, hate this feeling (Hate this feeling)
I hate, hate, hate this feeling (Ooooh)
