I want to go back, forget that it's over

Painted in black, when you left me alone

I never knew, she was sleeping next door

With the kid I grew up with, and I can't go back to her
Anymore, no

You tell me you were happier with him, but you want me to stay

And you tell me that you needed time, but you push me away

And when you try to take me back

My heavy heart just breaks

No, I can't lift the weight

Put you in the past

Try to forget you cause it's over

And every time you ask

I'll pretend I'm okay

You're inside my head

In the middle of the night when I don't feel right

I dream I can hold you

And I can't go back to you anymore, yeah, yeah

You tell me you were happier with him, but you want me to stay

And you tell me that you needed time, but you push me away

And when you try to take me back

My heavy heart just breaks

But I can't lift the weight

And I can't lift the weight

I can't lift the weigh, no I can't life the weight

Yeah, you stand on my shoulders and my heart just break

I can't lift the weigh, no I can't life the weight

Yeah, you stand on my shoulders and my heart just breaks

I can't lift the weigh, no I can't life the weight

Yeah, you lower your standards and I raise the stakes

I can't lift the weigh, no I can't life the weight

You tell me you were happier with him, but you want me to stay

And you tell me that you needed time but you, you push me away

And when you try to take it back

My heavy heart just breaks

But I can't lift the weight, and I can't lift the weight

You tell me you were happier with him, but you want me to stay

You told me that you needed time but you, you push me away

And when try to take me back

You say someday you will change, but I don't wanna wait
