Lyrics

I just can’t believe we’re here
Suddenly become so clear
It feels as if I don’t know you anymore
We’re living our separate lives
To me this one big disguise
And now it’s as if we’re slowly moving backwards

You cheat, you lie, you always deceive me
My love has died, you gotta believe it
So let’s just finish what we’ve started.

You say that I don’t understand your pain
And now I’m gonna drag you down again
You shattered every dream that you once had
I’m telling you it’s over now, it’s time to make a stand
My wish is your command
It’s time to turn my back on you baby

You gambled away your pride, revealing a darker side
Proving that I don’t need you anymore
My trust you chose to abuse
Making me feel so confused
I’ve turned it around and I’m slowly moving forwards

You cheat, you lie, you always deceive me
My love has died, you gotta believe it
So let’s just finish what we’ve started.

You say that I don’t understand your pain …

Let’s just finish what we’ve started
Make a stand, my wish is your command
It’s time to turn my back on you baby
