They say good things 
Don't last forever 
I guess they were right 

Guess I really gotta let it go 
Telling myself that this just not for me 
Here we go around this merry go 
Don't you understand that 
One of us just gots to leave 
So should I close the door 
You take the key 
Telling me I've been violent 
Wishing I could rewind 
How this broke heart 
I can't believe 
Didn't know how to make this work 

You know I thought I had it all y'all 
It seems that I'm wasting time 
Even though I've tried 
Guess I've done it all wrong 

I wish that I 
Wish that I could help us 
But I gotta take off, off, off 
For once in my life 
I gotta take off, off, off 
It's time for me to break away 

Baby we should let this curtain close 
This is really nothing else that's left to show 
It's like everytime you look we're starting over 
Baby, we done it too many times before 
Can't you see I had enough 
All my love, maybe you didn't deserve it 
Acting like you're miss perfect 
I'm manning up, standing up 
Cause I know you ain't been doing me right 

You know I thought I had it all y'all 
It seems that I'm wasting time 
Even though I've tried 
Guess I've done it all wrong 

I wish that I 
Wish that I could help us 
But I gotta take off, off, off 
For once in my life 
I gotta take off, off, off 
It's time for me to break away 

What am I doing? 
Who do I tell? 
I was blinded from the [bad word] 
That's why I stayed so long 
I should blame myself 
Girl, we used to be so close 
But I gotta get far away 
Baby, maybe we can roll 
If I get far away 

You know I thought I had it all y'all 
It seems that I'm wasting time 
Even though I've tried 
Guess I've done it all wrong 

I wish that I 
Wish that I could help us 
But I gotta take off, off, off 
For once in my life 
I gotta take off, off, off 
It's time for me to break away
