Nerve

(album: Dying Lately - 2021)

You got a lot of nerve to walk in unannounced
You drug me through the dirt, you kicked me when I'm down, yeah
You caught me at me lowest, devil on my shoulder
Heart made out of coal, yeah, you turned me even colder, yeah

So leave me alone, know I won't be looking for you
I'm sad in my ways, you know I used to adore you
This hole in my chest was never there before you came along
So I wrote you this song, it goes

Don't tell me you want me, I don't know who you are
You left me dead on the floor, I don't wanna see you again
Let go of my heart, I should've known from the start
That you would tear me apart, how foolish could I have been?
I fell for the wrong one, baby, just another stupid mistake (Yeah)
You turned our love into a war zone, baby
I should run for cover, you love to make me suffer

So here we go again, it's me versus you
Don't sit there and pretend why you're acting confused and I don't know why
You lean on my shoulder just to cut me all over
And you speak love to abuse me, so

Leave me alone, there's nothing left to destroy now
You brought the rain with you, I been watching it pour down
This hole in my chest was never there before you came along
So I wrote you this song, it goes

Don't tell me you want me, I don't know who you are
You left me dead on the floor, I don't wanna see you again
Let go of my heart, I should've known from the start
That you would tear me apart, how foolish could I have been?
I fell for the wrong one, baby, just another stupid mistake (Yeah)
You turned our love into a war zone, baby
I should run for cover, you love to make me suffer

You tried to turn me to nothing, but I just ignored it
Took the knife out of my back, I put it in yours
And I've been moving along, I hope you got what you want
Don't come crawling when everything falls back down

Don't tell me you want me, I don't know who you are
You left me dead on the floor, I don't wanna see you again
Let go of my heart, I should've known from the start
That you would tear me apart, how foolish could I have been?
I fell for the wrong one, baby, just another stupid mistake (Yeah)
You turned our love into a war zone, baby
I should run for cover, you love to make me suffer
