You promised the world and I fell for it
I put you first and you adored it
Set fires to my forest
And you let it burn
Sang off key in my chorus
'Cause it wasn't yours
I saw the signs and I ignored it
Rose-colored glasses all distorted
Set fires to my purpose
And I let it burn
You got off on the hurting
When it wasn't yours
Yeah
We'd always go into it blindly
I needed to lose you to find me
This dancing was killing me softly
I needed to hate you to love me yeah
To love love yeah
To love love yeah
To love yeah
I needed to lose you to love me yeah
To love love yeah
To love love yeah
To love yeah
I needed to lose you to love me
I gave my all and they all know it
You turned me down and now it's showing
In two months you replaced us
Like it was easy
Made me think I deserved it
In the thick of healing
Yeah
We'd always go into it blindly
I needed to lose you to find me
This dancing was killing me softly
I needed to hate you to love me yeah
To love love yeah
To love love yeah
To love yeah
I needed to lose you to love me yeah
To love love yeah
To love love yeah
To love yeah
I needed to lose you to love me
