[Verse 1]
This is not your playground
I’m not here for you to shoot me down
Preying on my weakness
Even when you’re not around
[Verse 2]
Nothing lasts forever
But you’re wrapped around my DNA
And I’m hiding in the corner as the wounded kid I was
Like it was yesterday
Like nothing’s changed
[Pre-Chorus]
All that you’ve done you see
Ever so quietly
Comes creeping back up on me
Haunting me, goading me
Why can’t you let go of me?
I don’t have the patience anymore
[Chorus]
That’s not me
I won’t be the version of me
The one you think you’re comfortable with
The one you think you had your fun with
If I can’t trust myself
Why should I trust anyone else?
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Pre-Chorus]
All that you’ve done you see
Ever so quietly
Keeps creeping back up on me
Haunting me, goading me
Why can’t you let go of me?
I don’t have the patience anymore
[Chorus]
That’s not me
I won’t be the version of me
The one you think you’re comfortable with
The one you think you had your fun with
That’s not me
[Outro]
That’s not me
I won’t be the version of me
The one you think you’re comfortable with
The one you think you had your fun with
If I can’t trust myself
Why should I trust anyone else?
