Lyrics

VERSE 1:
I always like to listen, love to watch you sway
When you say the words it's sure to brighten up my day
I can't help but get excited, and you're so proud
But if you never mean it why do you say it out loud?

PRE-CHORUS:
I know it's not intentional, you never mean harm
Must be my perception, I guess I dwell to long

CHORUS 1:
Sometimes there's just no way
To disguise the pain, the disappointment
When Fool's Gold is all I ever get
For getting my hopes up

VERSE 2:
Perhaps your indecision is best kept in your head
Then at least there's company for what you've left unsaid
Why am I expected to play some other's part?
I can always see it coming from so far

PRE-CHORUS, CHORUS 1

BRIDGE:
I know I'm good enough, just the way I am
Do you not see me for what I'm worth?
I will not be your runner up anymore
Just when I think that this is workin'
You take back your word and my heart is left hurtin'
I don't know why you feel the need to lie
Maybe 'cuz you're still an adolescent, so I wonder why did I
Waste my time on you in the first place, and call
You my boo when you was just a disgrace?
Your manner, it matters, I see now that you're just a Mad Hatter
So excuse my grammar when I say now, "You can have at'er"

CHORUS 2:
I have to walk away
I'll be free of the pain, and disappointment
When I leave, baby, you will regret
Getting my hopes up
