You Weren’t Listening

[Chorus]
Being with a snake like me, you were always going to get bit
I tried to warn you, but you weren't listening
I tried to warn you, I really did, you knew the truth, but ignored it
You knew the truth, but ignored it
Being with a snake like me, you were always going to get bit
I tried to warn you, but you weren't listening, you weren't
Being with a snake like me, you were always going to get bit
I tried to warn you, but you weren't listening

[Verse]
I tried to warn you, yeah, I really did
You knew the truth, but you still ignored it
And the feelings still linger on like a ghost
They overwhelm my body and it becomes their host
I've had things good, better than most, this is not the time to boast
This is not the time to brag, the signs were always there, they always have
You didn't pay attention and that makes you sad
You didn't pay attention and now you're fuming mad
How could things turn out like that?
The man you loved was just a hack, you did so much and he still lied
You did so much, I know you really tried, all of that effort wasted, so unwise
You're facing yourself and asking why, why did God make me fall in love?
Why did he make this man messed up?
He snaked me and then he moved on
And I'm still bitter, I can't erase my thoughts
I'm not cold enough to delete memories
How can I just pretend this is history?
You're really telling me there's nothing I can do?
Fate is so cruel, I refuse to believe this is true
I'm in denial over what you chose to do
You cheated on me when I did everything for you
A snake doesn't change and a snake is consistent
Never trust them and never fall for their image
I'm apologizing for something I shouldn't be
I was a snake, it's your fault you didn't see

[Chorus]
Being with a snake like me, you were always going to get bit
I tried to warn you, but you weren't listening
I tried to warn you, I really did, you knew the truth, but ignored it
You knew the truth, but ignored it
Being with a snake like me, you were always going to get bit
I tried to warn you, but you weren't listening, you weren't
Being with a snake like me, you were always going to get bit
I tried to warn you, but you weren't listening

[Verse]
I tried to warn you, yeah, I really did
You knew the truth, but you still ignored it
And the feelings still linger on like a ghost
They overwhelm my body and it becomes their host
I've had things good, better than most, this is not the time to boast
This is not the time to brag, the signs were always there, they always have
You didn't pay attention and that makes you sad
You didn't pay attention and now you're fuming mad
How could things turn out like that?
The man you loved was just a hack, you did so much and he still lied
You did so much, I know you really tried, all of that effort wasted, so unwise
You're facing yourself and asking why, why did God make me fall in love?
Why did he make this man messed up?
He snaked me and then he moved on
And I'm still bitter, I can't erase my thoughts
I'm not cold enough to delete memories
How can I just pretend this is history?
You're really telling me there's nothing I can do?
Fate is so cruel, I refuse to believe this is true
I'm in denial over what you chose to do
You cheated on me when I did everything for you
A snake doesn't change and a snake is consistent
