[Verse 1]
When I found out this love's undone
I was like a gun
Sure as it was over
Felt like nothing good could come
[Pre-Chorus]
Sure as it's gonna play and play
Like Michael back in the day
I'm gonna peel you away
[Chorus]
Now as I begin
To wash you off my skin
I'm gonna peel you away
'Cause you're not right within
[Verse 2]
I love you so
Sometimes love has to let go
So this time don't think it's a lie
I say goodbye
[Chorus]
Now as I begin
To wash you off my skin
I'm gonna peel you away
'Cause you're not right within
[Outro]
Now it's time
To wash you off my skin
Now as I begin
It couldn't be right 'cause you're not right within
I say goodbye
