Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
You come in late with a borrowed smile
Smell like trouble, been gone a while
You kiss my cheek like it’s charity
Baby, don’t you lie so tenderly

[Pre-Chorus]
I been strong, I been kind
I been blind just to give you time
But every tear you never see
Is building up inside of me

[Chorus]
You don’t love me, you just use me
Say my name like it’s nothing to be
You don’t call me when you need me
You call me just to hurt me

[Verse 2]
You hold my hand like it’s a crime
Look over your shoulder all the time
You say my heart’s too much to hold
But you keep it when the night gets cold

[Pre-Chorus]
I gave you fire, I gave you truth
You play them both like cheap perfume
You don’t break me accidentally
You know exactly what you do to me

[Chorus]
You don’t love me, you just use me
Wear my pain like a memory
You don’t miss me, don’t deserve me
You come around just to hurt me

[Break / Vocal Ad-libs]
(Just to hurt me…)
You don’t stay… you don’t stay…
(Just to hurt me…)
Why you keep calling my name?

[Final Chorus]
You don’t want me, you don’t choose me
You just need someone who’ll bleed
You don’t love me, never did see
You only love what you do to me

[Outro]
One of these nights I won’t answer
One of these tears won’t fall
And you’ll learn too late, baby
I wasn’t weak at all
