[Verse 1]
Am I some sort of distraction, babe
Fulfilling the need for attention you crave
Is it enough to entertain you?
You talk to me more than you talk to him
If it was me it would get under my skin
But you write me off so no one can blame you
[Chorus]
I'm done
Hanging on the words you say
Cause I don't wanna get in the way
You swear you're in love but
He don't understands you like I do
And I wanna be more than this
But he's a drug you can't quit
And I'm just the glue that keeps you from falling apart
The substitute for the hole in your heart
[Post-Chorus]
Am I right, now?
Am I right, now?
You know I'm right, now
He don't understands you like I do
Am I right, now?
Am I right, now?
You know I'm right, now
[Verse 2]
Now that my patience is wearing so thin
I'll stop this before it can ever begin
I don't like your games but you make me play them
Is this temporary or is this for real?
It's hard to believe that you feel complete when
He's the polar opposite of me
[Chorus]
Now I'm done
Hanging on the words you say
Cause I don't wanna get in the way
You swear you're in love but
He don't understands you like I do
And I wanna be more than this
But he's a drug you can't quit
And I'm just the glue that keeps you from falling apart
The substitute for the hole in your heart
[Post-Chorus]
Am I right, now?
Am I right, now?
You know I'm right, now
He don't understands you like I do
Am I right, now?
Am I right, now?
You know I'm right, now
[Bridge]
The way you feel must be so sweet
The satisfaction you get talking to me
When are you gonna stop it, stop it?
The way you feel must be so sweet
The satisfaction you get talking to me
When are you gonna stop...
[Chorus]
Cause I'm done
Hanging on the words you say
Cause I don't wanna get in the way
You swear you're in love but
He don't understands you like I do
And I wanna be more than this
But he's a drug you can't quit
And I'm just the glue that keeps you from falling apart
The substitute for the hole in your heart
[Post-Chorus]
He don't understands you like I do
Am I right, now?
Am I right, now?
You know I'm right, now
He don't understands you like I do
Am I right, now?
Am I right, now?
You know I'm right, now
