I used to bite my tongue for you Play it cool, play it sweet Laugh at shit that wasn’t funny Just to keep you next to me I made excuses, covered lies Told myself it’s just a phase But loving you felt like a job And I don’t work for free these days Pre-Chorus I was bending, you were taking I was real, you were faking Chorus I don’t need you like I thought I did Don’t miss you like I said I would You were something I got over Not something that was ever good I’m not pretending anymore Not playing nice to keep the peace You can keep your half-ass love I finally fucking feel free Verse 2 You liked me better quiet Liked me small, liked me tame But I was never built to fit Inside your little game Now I say what I’m thinking And I don’t wait for a reply You used to be the center Now you’re barely on my mind Pre-Chorus I was yours, now I’m mine Took my time, now I’m fine Chorus I don’t need you like I thought I did Don’t miss you like I said I would You were something I got over Not something that was ever good I’m not pretending anymore Not playing nice to keep the peace You can keep your half-ass love I finally fucking feel free Bridge (calm → sharp) I used to think I’d break without you Now I know I just bent You were never that important Just where all my energy went Final Chorus I don’t need you, not even close Don’t feel it when I hear your name You’re just someone that I knew once Nothing more, nothing to claim I’m not pretending anymore Not giving you what you want You can keep your little ego I’m already fucking gone Outro (clean, final) No hard feelings just no feelings …at all. Just kidding
