[Verse 1]
Never
Never again
I’ll never open myself up to anyone anymore
You took every soft part
Twisted it sharp
Left me talking to the door
Never again will I dress my hurt in hope
Never again will I swallow down my pride
You made my love feel cheap
Like a bad joke
I’m done
I’m cutting every tie
[Chorus]
Never again will I look like a damn fool
Crying on the curb while you play it cool
Never again will I beg for your mercy
Hands on the floor while you walk right by
Never again
I swear it this time
Never again will I stand by your side
[Verse 2]
You said I was “too much”
Then you said I wasn’t ever quite enough
I bent till my backbone snapped
Just to taste a little touch
Now every promise sounds like static in my head
Your name just feels like rust on my tongue
You had me shaking
Waiting by the phone
Now watch me leave you in the dust
[Chorus]
Never again will I look like a damn fool
Crying on the curb while you play it cool
Never again will I beg for your mercy
Hands on the floor while you walk right by
Never again
I swear it this time
Never again will I stand by your side
[Bridge]
[Beat drops to toms and bass]
This is the last time I rehearse our history
The last time I let you live in my mind
I’m changing the locks on every memory
You don’t get a second of my life
(Transition (right before final chorus): Everything cuts out Reverse swell + rising synth pitch Vocal line solo “This is the last time…” (hold note → pitch rises) Then DROP into B minor)
[Chorus]
Never again will I look like a damn fool
Crying on the curb while you play it cool
Never again will I beg for your mercy
Hands on the floor while you walk right by
Never again
I swear it this time
Never again will I stand by your side
Never again
Never again will I stand by your side (hey!)
[Post-Chorus / Hook – layered vocals, punchy]
Never again, not even in my dreams
You don’t get access, you don’t get me
Every tear you took, I take back twice
I paid your love, now I own my life
Never again, say it louder now
Burn your name, I don’t want it around
You had your chance, you let it die
Now I’m the one walking out this time
[Outro – stripped piano → builds slightly at the end]
Never again…
No, you don’t get to know this version of me
I was breaking while you watched me bleed
Now I’m healing where you’ll never be
Never again… I mean it now
No looking back, no second round
You lost the girl who would’ve stayed
Now I’m the one who walks away
[FINAL CHORUS]
(Key Change – Bigger + Cinematic)
[Final Chorus – Key Change to B minor]
Never again will I look like a damn fool
Crying on the curb while you play it cool
Never again will I beg for your mercy
Hands on the floor while you walk right by
Never again
I swear it this time
Never again will I stand by your side
Never again
Yeah I mean it this time
Never again—watch me take back my life
