Cruel

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I think back to when you were mine I think about you, oh, I think about you Even with someone new by my side I think about you, I still think about you [Pre-Chorus 1] Out with friends, I see your face You start to pull me in Say you're in a better place I start to let you in [Chorus] Why'd I have to love something bad? Can't you go and hurt someone new? Why protect myself to give it all back? How am I back to square one with you? Oh, I've lost myself In a vicious hell Of thinking you'll change When I know that you never do Why'd I have to go back to you? Why'd I have to fall for someone cruel? [Verse 2] I tell myself that it'll work this time And I believe it, oh, I believe it The only one who can't detect your lies I believe 'em, oh, I believe 'em [Pre-Chorus 2] Out with her now, changed your mind And everyone can see You're trying to run, but you can't hide That she looks just like me (You know she does) [Chorus] Why'd I have to love something bad? Can't you go and hurt someone new? Why protect myself to give it all back? How am I back to square one with you? Oh, I've lost myself In a vicious hell Of thinking you'll change When I know that you never do Why'd I have to go back to you? Why'd I have to fall for someone cruel? [Bridge] I want you to know, I want you to know I want you to know, I want you to know That I'm gonna be just fine I want you to know, I want you to know I want you to know, I want you to know That you have no place in my life [Chorus] Why'd I have to love something bad? Can't you go and hurt someone new? Why protect myself to give it all back? How am I back to square one with you? Oh, I've lost myself In a vicious hell Of thinking you'll change When I know that you never do Why'd I have to go back to you? Why'd I have to fall for someone cruel?
