There's an alternate meaning
behind the words you spoke
I can hear that now
Well I know he wants you back
but I don't wanna let you go
Can you feel that?
It's tight enough to choke

How could you say a thing like that?
How could you say a thing like that?
I look to your face and see
it's telling me there's no retort
and the things I thought are coming true
due to your cruel ways

Now we sleep in separate rooms
I talk to walls instead of you
Can you hear me? No?
I'm combining luck and chance
hoping for you sideways glance
so I can see you
You laugh but there's no joke

How could you say a thing like that?
How could you say a thing like that?
I look to your face and see
it's telling me there's no retort
and the things I thought
are coming true due to your cruel ways
