Its kinda funny how it ends as it began
on the floor inside a closet and
now you’ll go on your marry way
no more hello’s yeah just forget my name.
Cus you got it without me.
Yeah you got it without me .
I’m just taking my time wondering
how the clock can shine again
Cus times just passing me by.
But I know my future it’s bright
And one day he’ll realize
he left the girl who’s seeing lights and say
I’m surprised she’s so fly.
Leaving her was the biggest mistake of my life, just
Look at all she can do.
And I don’t know why I’m feeling this way
but sometimes love just plays these games
now I’m stuck without her and I don’t know what to do.
And ill be like sucks to be you. X4
Its kinda funny how we think so complicated
when life’s so simple if you make it
just pick up the pace and move a little faster,
don’t be afraid to catch what you’re after.
Cus you got it without me.
Yeah we got it and we don’t need to be …
Taking our time wondering
how the clock can shine again cus time ain’t passing us by.
And we know our future is bright
and one day he’ll realize he left the girl who’s in the lights and say.
so now you say you want me, you say you need me,
you say you gotta gotta have me.
But what you just told me is that you n miss me
and now your lookin back
Wanting wanting wanting some of what we had.
And I’ve realized I’m too fly,
leaving you was the best thing I did in my life.
just look at all I can do.
And I don’t know why I ever felt that way
and let you play me in your stupid game
but now your stuck without me and
I know just what to do.
Sucks to be you.
