[Verse 1]
I’m not going to pretend
I saw you out with all your friends
Last night, The Barfly
Kept my eyes right on your back
And I was trying to shake it off
But then the Friday feeling stopped
And back I went
Feeling confused and sad and lost
[Pre-Chorus 1]
I should’ve stopped looking
I stopped crying only half a week ago
What a waste of tears and alcohol
'Cause now this night will end
In me just texting all my friends
"Okay, but maybe this time I will let him off just once again"
[Chorus]
'Cause you keep pulling me back
Heart attack
Switch it up again
Snakebite kiss
Just a little bit of play pretend
And once I get my fix I will say, "We’re through,"
Babe, we both know that there’s just no
Getting over you
[Verse 2]
You are dumb and you are mean
Talk with some girl like you can’t see me
But you have
This room's not big enough to pretend that
We are done and we are fine
I’m desperate to draw a line
But at the same time, half-hoping we can cross one
[Pre-Chorus 2]
You are what I hate
The very worst best type of face
One look, you see straight through me
I’m hooked, sinker, line, straight sushi
I am four steps back
This alcoholic’s fourth relapse
I’m addicted
You prescripted tears from the very first day
[Chorus]
But you keep pulling me back
Heart attack
Switch it up again
Snakebite kiss
Just a little bit of play pretend
And once I get my fix I will sing, "We’re through"
Babe, we both know that there’s just no
Getting over...
[Post-Chorus]
You are a mess in skinny jeans
Too tight
You have confessed
It's just the chase that you like
Mistakes are my game
So smudged mascara is my prize
There’s just no getting over you
[Bridge]
So you walk off like the usual
'Cause to you there’s no plural in our names once the clock strikes twelve
I play your games like it's blackjack
Then you go and I’m right back
Just two clueless eyes
And I’m kicking myself
I just don’t learn
[Outro]
So I get a taxi half-past twelve
And it distracts me for a moment
From your eyes
The girl tonight
Well, what a party
Too drunk to really think things through
The only time I understand you
We both know I’m not over being close to you
