Don't Act Broken

I'm not changing, it's because of you...
You know it's true, yeah you do
Stop shifting the blame onto me
Because you see, it's over
Don't blame me, cos it was you

Chorus
I may be breaking, but not for long
Cos I said so long to ya
Don't act broken, cos I'm right, so don't fight me
I'm not lieing and I won't cry
My wounds will heal in time

It seemed perfect, 4 months long
Like I belonged, but I was wrong
And I know we both made mistakes
But I didn't lie, it's over
And I'll try so hard not to hate you

Repeat Chorus

Everybody thought we were perfect, they couldn't be more wrong
You knew I loved you, I thought you loved me too, but that was a load of shit
I can't take it, I can't handle it
And there you are laughing and pointing at me and I see you're fake now
No you're not gonna take me down, I'm not turning my mind around, no, no
Stop the manipulation, don't take much contemplation cos it's over now
Cos it's over now

All those times I wrote you those songs and we'd kiss and have warm feelings
And when I'd hold your hand and tell you you're all I had to believe in
You hurt me so much I even cried but now I have one thing to say
I wish I had died and that's not a lie like everything you ever said was!!!

Repeat Chorus

I wish I could scream til the windows break
scream at you with all the hate in my heart
Still it wouldn't be enough to cure all the acheing
All the lies and all the taking
Everything I've ever done was just a waste of time now
Do you see how I'm not coping?
But don't go hoping, I'll never take you back...
