[Verse 1]
A few days ago
I caught you lying to my face
A lie by omission
but my head went to a place where
I was thinking, what else have you been keeping from me
to frame your fake story...

over complicated plots
You underestimate my intuition,
And power of intrusive thoughts 
This time you fucked around and found out
One forgotten receipt
Exposed your own deceit

[Prechorus]
I called you out in that moment
You had no answer prepared
You pushed my buttons, found the one
Labeled “scared”

[Chorus]
To be honest  
I’m running on fumes right now  
But I still fuel your fire  
While mine keeps burning out

Then you use your mistake
To flip the script on me
When it works out in your favor
Conveniently.....
You steal all of my energy

[Verse 2]
I’m not heartless, I know firsthand 
You’re stuck in damage control
But I refuse to be a victim
Won’t compromise my goals, I want a soul-
Mate, and you’re giving me the bare min
All these rules you make me follow 
Got my patience paper-thin

Rules for touching, talking
Sleeping, TV
The lines are blurred, I can't keep up
Too tired to care, honestly

[Prechorus]
I never know which version of you I'll get
You flip the switch
And suddenly you become someone 
i've never met and i'd rather forget
It's exhausting, I'm drained to my core
But you keep taking more

[Chorus]
To be honest  
I’m running on fumes right now  
But I still fuel your fire  
While mine keeps burning out

Then you use your mistake
To flip the script on me
When it works out in your favor
Conveniently.....
You steal all of my energy

[Bridge]
Don’t get it twisted
Let’s make a list of
Every way you’ve been inconsistent

Number one
I never asked to be your priority

Number two
You think I’m the only one with negativity?
The hypocrisy spills like toxic waste
Endlessly

Number three
Don’t fucking blame me
For the laziness you feel
That’s a choice you make
And blame on me, be real

[Final Chorus / Outro]
You shut me out
Then pull me in
Hide the truth
Break rules so you can win

You either want me around
Or you don’t
Decide
Don’t expect me to wait

You showed me a light in the dark
I saw that I’m not too much
Then you cut the power
Now I don’t trust

Benefit of the doubt
Is a privilege you lost
By the time you miss it
I’ll be long gone
