I lied, but you overreacted

Driving so fast on a reckless one, I got the tears streaming down her face
I got the music up so loud I can’t hear what’s in my brain
She’s sitting in her bed at home going crazy, I got the windows down in the rain
I’m just confused but she’s so angry and upset I dunno how to explain

I admit it, it’s my own fault
I ain’t gonna stay there, no no
I got up and left to go home
I just gotta let that hold go
Can’t believe my soul was so sold
You was telling me we’d grow old
So many choices wrong I chose
Should have dipped out so long ago
Visibility was skewed false
But in my swede I knew so
Didn’t cheat, I found loopholes
Pity me, why did I stoop so low?
Ah
Why didn’t I let you go?
Ah

Let’s go back to the start now

First I started
Started working with her
I was chatting
Talking to someone else
But that’s hardly
That’s hardly murder I won’t take those charges
But what I will admit is
First I started
Started with you without telling her first and
Then I told you we weren’t a thing
Yeah that only went and made things worse
So first I started wrong
I should have seen things as a sign
We hadn’t departed, even then I knew we would capsize

Driving so fast on a reckless one, I got the tears streaming down her face
I got the music up so loud I can’t hear what’s in my brain
She’s sitting in her bed at home going crazy, I got the windows down in the rain
I’m just confused but she’s so angry and upset I dunno how to explain

That weren’t the only thing
I was holding in
I was only thinking
Of your response to it
Yeah this girl was different
I told you she was a friend
I was adamant
But I couldn’t handle it

Could of kept it a secret
After I told you she was a friend
But I chose not to keep it
Yeah I chose to say we slept
Your reaction was deeper
Than I expected even though I know how you get
You get angry then evil
I wish you just got upset

I lied
I lied to you
And I tried
But I lied to you
I lied
I lied to you
And I tried
But I still lied to you

I admit it, it’s my own fault
I ain’t gonna stay there, no no
I got up and left to go home
I just gotta let that hold go
Can’t believe my soul was so sold
You was telling me we’d grow old
So many choices wrong I chose
Should of dipped out so long ago
Visibility was skewed false
But in my swede I knew so
Didn’t cheat, I found loopholes
Pity me, why did I stoop so low?
Ah
Why didn’t I let you go?
