Prompt / Lyrics
Intro: Just once in a while I want things to go as planned No last-minute “sorry” No “I don’t think I can” No last minute texts with a “Sorry I forgot to mention” I always see it coming It’s just basic comprehension (Pre-Chrous) They don’t mean to hurt me, I know that’s the line But they’re all just way too comfortable wasting my god damn time I tell myself it’s fine and it’s not worth making a scene I just wish you would have thought about what flaking really means (Chorus) I turn the other cheek Like it’s nothing to me Pretend like I’m not angry Even though I want to be I say “yeah no it’s fine” As you let me down again You’re not one to follow through No no, you’ve never been What’s a girl gotta do to make you people care? I’m already dressed, how is this fair? You bailed on me then ghosted me for weeks, But I’m just me, and turn the other cheek. (Bridge) If I stopped forgivin And selfishly started livin Would you even notice? Would it finally flip a switch? Or would you move on thinking I’m a total psycho bitch? I’m tired of making space, tired of making time Tired of burning dollars when you can’t spend a dime Yeah I… (Final Chorus) I turn and look the other way But I just need to say I think I’m losing feeling gotta break and start the healing You think that it’s fine but I’m taking back what’s mine You can do whatever makes sense my dear But not at my expense I fear Because when I turned the other cheek I was alone in the mirror
