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
