[Verse 1]
I remember one time we were fighting
He low blowed and it made me cry
Looking back, the wall was covered in writing
But I'm the one who apologized
[Pre-Chorus]
And then I played the sex card
Hoping it would keep him
Acting like a porn star
We both know that's not me, yeah
And I hate to say it
But you sound a lot like him tonight
Well, you gotta know I've changed
I'm not afraid to say goodbye
[Chorus]
So don't try to control me
Act like you own me
That might have worked when I was dumber
But you're not with the old me
Don't tеll me the same liеs
My exes told me
That might have worked when I was dumber
[Verse 2]
I guess you learn a lot from dating psychos
Like how to have some self respect
I really hope it's not my only type though
'Cause I'd rather be alone or dead
[Pre-Chorus]
Don't wanna play the sex card
'Cause I know it only hurts me
And acting like a porn star
Just leaves me feeling dirty, dirty
So if that's what you expect
You oughta get somebody new
'Cause now my heart knows what it knows
And it plays by different rules
[Chorus]
So don't try to control me
Act like you own me
That might have worked when I was dumber
But you're not with the old me
Don't tell me the same lies
My exes told me
That might have worked when I was dumber, dumber
[Bridge]
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da
[Chorus]
Don't try to control me
Act like you own me
That might have worked when I was dumber
But you're not with the old me
Don't tell me the same lies
My exes told me
That might have worked when I was dumber
And I'm not dumber
[Outro]
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da
I'm not dumber
