[Intro]
I never seem to let myself win (Woo, yeah)
Yeah, and I don't wanna call you just a friend (Woo)
[Verse 1]
It's funny how you always know what's best for me
I be running up all of your energy
You took my breath, that's a memory
But I ain't gonna blame you if you up and leave
[Pre-Chorus]
I try keep all the lights on
All the lights on, all the lights on
'Cause know it goes dark when it's about to end
Yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
See, I could learn my lesson
I could bitch about the mess I'm in
I go back and forth, I'm stressing
Still, I'm stuck on you like cotton candy
Don't know where you get your patience
'Cause I'm filled with hesitations, so
Scared of my imagination
Still, you're stuck on mе like cotton candy
[Verse 2]
Yeah, and no lie
Evеry time I wanna run again
She hold down, make me feel like I am one again
There ain't nobody that can save me from my shit within
So sweet just like candy, there's no argument
But now it all depends
Will you stay around and test your tolerance?
Even though you might have to ignore your friends
I ain't gonna blame you if you on the fence
[Pre-Chorus]
I try keep all the lights on
All the lights on, all the lights on
'Cause I know it goes dark when it's about to end
Yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
See, could learn my lesson
Could bitch about the mess I'm in
I go back and forth, I'm stressing
Still, I'm stuck on you like cotton candy
Don't know where you get your patience
'Cause I'm filled with hesitation, so
Scared of my imagination
Still, you're stuck on me like cotton candy
[Outro]
I never seem to let myself win (Woo, yeah)
Yeah, and I don't wanna call you just a friend (Woo)
