Lyrics

A mess
I'm a, I'm a, I'm a
I'm a mess, I'm a mess

I'm feeling anxious
I'm tired of sittin' here
I'm just waitin'
My mind is racing and I'm impatient, debatin'
If you are really worth my time

Cause I know my feelings for you
Sometimes you get confused when I say I choose you forever
You should know how much I been through
I ain't got nothin' to prove
Boy this ain't nothin' new coz I'm a

Mess
Over you (mess)
the things you do (mess)
that you put me through and I bet you didn't know that I'm a
Mess
Can't let this go (mess)
I need to know (mess)
Why you build up my hopes and leave me in a mess

I'm frustrated
Not used to all these games and lately
You been treatin' me kinda crazy
Who you playin'?
I'm confused
Where did we go wrong?


Cause I know my feelings for you
Sometimes you get confused when I say I choose you forever
You should know how much I been through
I ain't got nothin' to prove
Boy this ain't nothin' new coz I'm a

Mess
Over you (mess)
the things you do (mess)
that you put me through and I bet you didn't know that I'm a
Mess
Can't let this go (mess)
I need to know (mess)
Why you build up my hopes and leave me in a mess
(repeat)

I try to put you on in spite of my ego
But I can't compete when you're seekin' attention from groupie hoes
Adolescent, acting like a little child
Shoulda known the game you were running, you played me with a smile
You need the spotlight ok, here's the red carpet
Dance for the crowd like a clown: mission accomplished
And I wish you well, hope you find what you're looking for

Mess
Over you (mess)
the things you do (mess)
that you put me through and I bet you didn't know that I'm a
Mess
Can't let this go (mess)
I need to know (mess)
Why you build up my hopes and leave me in a mess
(repeat)
