[Verse 1]
I wake up with bloodshot eyes, struggle to memorize
The way it felt between your thighs, the pleasure that made you cry
It feels so good to be bad, not worth the aftermath
And after that, after that I tried to get you back
[Pre-Chorus]
(But) I still don't have a reason
And you don't have the time
And it really makes me wonder
If I ever gave a fuck about you
[Chorus]
Give me somethin' to believe in
'Cause I don't believe in you anymore, anymore
I wonder if it even makes a difference to try
Yeah, so this is goodbye
[Verse 2]
God damn my spinning head, decisions that made my bed
Now I must lay in it and deal with things I've left unsaid
I want to dive into you, forget what we're goin' through
I get behind, you make your move, forget about the truth
[Pre-Chorus]
I still don't have a reason
And you don't have the time
And it really makes me wonder
If I ever gave a fuck about you
[Chorus 2]
Give me somethin' to believe in
'Cause I don't believe in you anymore, anymore
I wonder if it even makes a difference
It even makes a difference to try, yeah
And you tell me how you're feelin'
But I don't believe it's true anymore, anymore
I wonder if it even makes a difference to cry (Oh, no)
So this is goodbye
[Bridge]
(Ooh) I've been here before
One day, I'll wake up and it won't hurt anymore (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
You caught me in a lie (Oh-oh), I have no alibi (Oh-oh)
The words you say don't have a meaning
[Pre-Chorus 2]
'Cause I still don't have the reason
And you don't have the time
And it really makes me wonder
If I ever gave a fuck about you and I
And so this is goodbye
[Chorus 2]
Give me somethin' to believe in
'Cause I don't believe in you anymore, anymore
I wonder if it even makes a difference
It even makes a difference to try, yeah
And you tell me how you're feelin'
But I don't believe it's true anymore, anymore
I wonder if it even makes a difference to cry (Oh, no)
So this is goodbye (Oh, no)
[Outro]
So this is goodbye (Oh, no)
Yeah, so this is goodbye (Oh, no)
Yeah, so this is goodbye
