Now let me start by telling you that I told you

The situation isn't going how it's supposed to

We should have never messed around and played pretend

Acting like we didn't know how this would end

And everytime I think I'd get a little closure

You'd say all the things that pull me even closer

You pull me in and then you start to fade away

I'm tired of the back and forth it's not ok

So why does your heart think twice

Why doesn't this feel right

These situations keep on getting in the way

I'm feeling like i'll never look at you the same

The same

I gotta go

I won't let you fool me

If I had a choice

I'd rather be lonely

My heart ain't something i'll let you manipulate

I'm not a puppet on a string for you to play

To play

I gotta go

I wont let you fool me

If I had a choice

I'd rather be lonely

You walk around like you don't even know what you do

I'm sick of telling myself that it's me and not you

There's only so much

That I can take

But I'm not gonna break

It's obvious that i'm not someone that you value

Or else you wouldn't have made everything about you

Your time is up

There's nothing left for you to say

I think it's time for me to turn another page

So why does your heart think twice

Why's love a sacrifice

These situations keep on getting in the way

I'm feeling like i'll never look at you the same

The same

I gotta go

I won't let you fool me

If I had a choice

I'd rather be lonely

My heart ain't something i'll let you manipulate

I'm not a puppet on a string for you to play

To play

I gotta go

I wont let you fool me

If I had a choice

I'd rather be lonely

I'd rather be lonely

I'd rather be lonely

I'd rather be

I'd rather be

Maybe it's selfish

Maybe it's fate

Maybe i'm foolish for walking away

But how could you love me

And throw me away

Cause if that's what love is

I'd rather not play

I'd rather be lonely

I'd rather be lonely

These situations keep on getting in the way

I'm feeling like I'll never look at you the same

The same

I gotta go

I won't let you fool me

If I had a choice

I'd rather be lonely

I never thought that I would ever see the day

Where you'd become the kind of person that I hate

I hate

I gotta go

I won't let you fool me

If I had a choice

I'd rather be lonely
