I'm trying hard to understand you 
And your over-rated state of mind 
Sometimes you try to move me to you 
And make believe that it's all fine 

You say you love me, yes you do 
But I know who I'm talking to 
You left me so lonely and empty 
And I don't need your alibis 
'Cause I can see through all your lies 

You say you love me and I'll need you 
But I don't need to live my life that way, no way
Every storm deserves an ending 
And a break to peaceful skies
And every night I pray for my own mending 

Parading around like you're a superstar 
Is that who you think you are 
The higher you go, yeah, the harder you fall 
You say you love me, yes you do 
But I know who I'm talking to 

You left me so lonely and empty 
And I don't need your alibis 
'Cause I can see through your disguise 
You say you love me and I'll need you
But I don't need to live my life that way, no way
