[Verse 1]
I don't trust you, but I want to
I don't love you, but I will
Tell you everything about me
Give you everything that you need
Even though it isn't real
[Verse 2]
Got a soft spot for the hurtin'
Take some pleasure in the pain
But it wasn't you who called
I'm the reason that I lost you
And I can't even say her name
[Chorus]
I wanna be alone
But I hate lonely
I ain't got a heart left for holdin'
Anymore
She ain't comin' back
You don't wanna leave
So I'll break your heart
But only if you let me
[Verse 3]
God, I miss the way she kissed me
Felt it deep down in my veins
Made me weak in my knees
And I could hardly breathe
When she whispered my name
[Verse 4]
Time, it don't fix nothin'
There ain't a part of me that's healed
'Cause I know in all my runnin'
I could never find a lovin'
That would ever feel so real
[Chorus]
I wanna be alone
But I hate lonely
I ain't got a heart left for holdin'
Anymore
And she ain't comin' back
You don't wanna leave
So I'll break your heart
But only if you let me
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Chorus]
Wanna be alone
But I hate lonely
I ain't got the heart left for holdin'
Anymore
And she ain't comin' back
And you don't wanna leave
So I'll break your heart
But only if you let me
