Dakota

(Album: Everything Is Temporary - 2018)

I saw your boyfriend yesterday
He looked at me with the same face
Feels like I'm 17 again
I guess not much has even changed
Since we were back in highschool, talking everyday
Does he still tell you "I'll be sorry" if I ever even look your way?

Hey Dakota you can piss right off
You'll keep your hands to yourself
And remove my name from your mouth
Hey Dakota why are you so scared?
'Cause we both know that you hate me
So why don't you tell someone who cares?

How do you stand back and take it?
The cheating, lies and the abuse
Like a punching bag, you wont fight back
Tell me what's your best excuse
"Wipe those tears away" so many times I told her
But I'm here to hold your hand while you're crying on my shoulder
I've lost all faith in this, because he's never changing
I tried to tell you girl, but you never listened

Hey Dakota you can piss right off
You'll keep your hands to yourself
And remove my name from your mouth
Hey Dakota why are you so scared?
'Cause we both know that you hate me
So why don't you tell someone who cares?

You'd be better off on your own, I think you know
You'd be better off on your own (I'll say it again…)

Hey Dakota you can piss right off
You'll keep your hands to yourself
And remove my name from your mouth
Hey Dakota why are you so scared?
'Cause we both know that you hate me
So why don't you tell someone who cares?

You'd be better off on your own
But if you ever need I'll always be here
