[Verse 1]
See from my point of view
I was miles ahead from anybody else
Yeah, yeah
Turns out I was never alone in this race
For your body and yourself, mh
And again and again, let my heart
Beat for you and then you broke it on the floor
Sweat me under the table
Close up and you never open the door
[Chorus]
It's a shame that you didn't let me know
I wasn't even in the running, no
There's someone else you're holding onto, now
But you kept me around, you kept me
It's a shame that you didn't let me know
I wasn't even in the running, no
There's someone else you're holding onto, now
But you kept me around, mhm, you kept me
[Verse 2]
Hangin' on the words when you didn't need them though
Holdin' on for lie, one of us should've taken slow
Turning off the lights, letting you become a ghost
I should've been careful, I should've been careful
[Chorus]
It's a shame that you didn't let me know
I wasn't even in the running, no
There's someone else you're holding onto, now
But you kept me around, you kept me
It's a shame that you didn't let me know
I wasn't even in the running, no
There's someone else you're holding onto, now
But you kept me around, mhm, you kept me
[Bridge]
And I tried, tired, tired to keep up with you
'Cause I could have been what you wanted
And I lie, lie, lie when I say I'm over you
'Cause I'm not over you, no, I'm not
[Chorus]
It's a shame that you didn't let me know
I wasn't even in the running, no
There's someone else you're holding onto, now
But you kept me around, you kept me
It's a shame that you didn't let me know
I wasn't even in the running, no
There's someone else you're holding onto, now
But you kept me around, mhm, you kept me
It's a shame that you didn't let me know
I wasn't even in the running
