I'll show you I don't need you
without showing you at all
I don't owe you a thing

The song in my head
won't remind me of you
the feelings I felt will turn sour soon
you're nothing more
than just a bad taste in my mouth

there's nothing left
don't try and take it back
you can't fix the damage
you let me slip through the cracks
