[Verse 1]
Oh you think that you’re slick with it, and that you know it all
But I’ve got news for you, I’ve been here before,
So this doesn’t work with me anymore
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Not long ago I would’ve fallen for it,
Chosen to deceive myself and say you’re honest, I can’t lie to me no more,
You’re only tryin’ to make it work for you,
Not for me and you I know there’s plenty others, so don’t try it with me
[Chorus]
So you’re gonna say what you’re gon’ say,
But it won’t work with me no way, no, it’s not soothin’ my soul,
You say you wanna bring it all to me,
But actions speak more than words to me, no,
It’s not healing this hole in me
[Verse 2]
There was a time not long ago, you would’ve gotten all, all my love,
Laid it all out on you without a second thought, cos I was just glad to have anyone
[Pre Chorus 2]
Back then I tried to find my worth in
those who weren’t deserving nowhere near worth it,
I won’t lie to me no more
Now if you want anything from me you’ve got to
prove you’re worth my time, something true about you,
I won’t lie no more
[Chorus]
So you’re gonna say what you’re gon’ say,
But it won’t work with me no way, no, it’s not soothin’ my soul,
You say you wanna bring it all to me,
But actions speak more than words to me, no,
It’s not healing this hole in me
[Bridge]
Without self-respect how can I expect others to treat me right,
In order to heal, I’ll be how I really feel,
And if you don’t like it, get away from me
[Chorus] x 3
So you’re gonna say what you’re gon’ say,
But it won’t work with me no way, no, it’s not soothin’ my soul,
You say you wanna bring it all to me,
But actions speak more than words to me, no,
It’s not healing this hole in me

[Verse 1]
How can this be true these crazy words I’m hearing?
All I thought of when I woke was how soon I would see you
But now my arms are open, so are my eyes
What I heard and saw today, my head cannot deny
[Pre-Chorus 1]
She said things to me that I cannot believe
[Chorus]
Couldn’t tell me yourself
You just left it to her
Is this the thanks I get?
I had to hear it from her
[Verse 2]
I never questioned your complete love for me
But now I wish I had like all of my friends told me
I listened listlessly to all the stories she told me
About where you met, how long it’s been,
The place you’re sharing and the things you’ve seen
That was you and me
[Pre Chorus 2]
She said things to me that I must now believe
[Chorus]
Couldn’t tell me yourself
You just left it to her
Is this the thanks I get?
I had to hear it from her
[Bridge] x 4
I’m not mad at her or angry with you
I’m just disappointed that this is what it’s come to
[Chorus] x 3
Couldn’t tell me yourself
You just left it to her
Is this the thanks I get?
I had to hear it from her

[Verse 1]
When we didn’t know right from wrong
It all came so easily,
Never working out when or why
Just kept moving on with the time
[Pre-Chorus 1]
We tried to look back on what happened
It was too much to take
And you never showed me how to move on from this
And I don’t know what happened to me
Cause you were the one who taught me to be strong
But I never learned how to do that without you
[Chorus]
If you start listening carefully
Then you can find the lessons and you’ll see
Nothin’ is for no reason, everything counts
So just keep on going, keep on going
[Verse 2]
When you finally said goodbye
I just wanted to run and hide
Forget everything that had been
And crush any light left in me
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I tried to look back on what happened
It was too much to take
And I wasn’t able to make any sense of it
Now I know it had to happen
Setting me free of all that was wrecking me
Now I know it’s true
What doesn’t kill you helps to build you
[Chorus] x 2
If you start listening carefully
Then you can find the lessons and you’ll see
Nothin’ is for no reason, everything counts
So just keep on going, keep on going
[Bridge]
Find inner light, The love left behind
In your heart and mind , She’s there inside
[Chorus] x 2
If you start listening carefully
Then you can find the lessons and you’ll see
Nothin’ is for no reason, everything counts
So just keep on going, keep on going
[Outro] x 4
Keep on going

[Chorus]
You got me workin’ for ya baby
Let me see how far I can fall
Got people thinkin’ that I’m crazy
But it’s your fault
[Verse 1]
When we first met, I could feel something happening a kind of big deal
But there was something and I couldn’t work it out
But over time after tryin’ to make it go away
My feelings powered through and what it was I cannot say
When you know you just know
[Pre-Chorus 1]
So since then I’ve done all I can to let you be my man
But it seems you need some nudgin’
But then when I’ve shown all the signs that I want you to be mine
It just seems that you’re blind
[Chorus]
You got me workin’ for ya baby
Let me see how far I can fall
Got people thinkin’ that I’m crazy
But it’s your fault
[Verse 2]
My friends say I should quit, but I can’t quit on this
I thought it was obvious but obviously not
People tryin’ to tell me that you’re making a fool of me
Cos you can’t seem to see what’s right in front of your face
[Pre-Chorus 2]
So since then I’ve done all I can to let you be my man
But it seems you need some nudgin’
But then when I’ve shown all the signs that I want you to be mine
It just seems that you’re blind
[Chorus] x 2
You got me workin’ for ya baby
Let me see how far I can fall
Got people thinkin’ that I’m crazy
But it’s your fault
