[Intro]
Yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah
Yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah
I could never
[Verse 1]
Talk how you talk, walk how you walk
'Cause I'd have a problem sleeping
Wandering eyes and comfortable lies
You seem to sleep just fine
I'm not a saint, and I make mistakes
But next to you I'm holy
Oh, I'm praying for your soul now
Praying for your soul
[Refrain]
If we're counting crimes, nickels and dimes
We'd both have riches but you'd be the richest around
Around
[Chorus]
I could never love me again
I could nevеr trust me again
If I did half of what you did, it's enough to make mе sick
I could never love me, love me, love me again (I could never)
[Verse 2]
Keep a straight face for causing you pain
Say it's your imagination
That's what you do like you gotta prove
You're not what I've had faith in (No)
[Refrain]
If we're counting crimes, nickels and dimes
We'd both have riches but you'd be the richest around
Around
[Chorus]
I could never love me again
I could never trust me again
If I did half of what you did, it's enough to make me sick
I could never love me, love me, love me again
[Post-Chorus]
Yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah
I could never
Yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah
I could never
I could never
I could never
[Bridge]
I don't wanna play a sick twisted game
Of who can do worse to the other
And I'll walk away
I don't wanna play, ayy
[Chorus]
I could never love me again
I could never trust me again
If I did half of what you did, it's enough to make me sick
I could never love me, love me, love me again
[Post-Chorus]
Yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah
I could never
Yeah-yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah
I could never
