Can't ever get it right
No matter how hard I try
And I've tried
Well, I put up a good fight
But your words cut like knives
And I'm tired
As you break my heart again this time
[Chorus:]
Tell me I'm a screwed up mess
That I never listen, listen
Tell me you don't want my kiss
That you need your distance, distance
Tell me anything but don't you say he's what you're missing baby
If he's the reason that you're leaving me tonight
Spare me what you're thinking, tell me a lie
Well you're the charming type
That little twinkle in your eye
Gets me every time.
And well there must've been a time
I was a reason for that smile
So keep in mind
As you take what's left of you and I
[Chorus:]
Tell me I'm a screwed up mess
That I never listen, listen
Tell me you don't want my kiss
That you need your distance, distance
Tell me anything but don't you say he's what you're missing baby
If he's the reason that you're leaving me tonight
Spare me what you're thinking, tell me a lie
Tell me a lie!
Tell me a lie!
Tell me a lie!
[Chorus:]
Tell me I'm a screwed up mess
That I never listen, listen
Tell me you don't want my kiss
That you need your distance, distance
Tell me anything but don't you say he's what you're missing baby
If he's the reason that you're leaving me tonight
Spare me what you're thinking, tell me a lie
Tell me a lie!
Tell me a lie!
Tell me a lie!
Tell me a lie!
