Left the door wide open for the whole wide world to see you
Then you kiss her right in front of me like I’m not even there
I should cause a scene for shit you’ve done to me
The saddest part is we both know that I would never leave
You know how it goes, everybody knows
I’m just another hand you hold
I don’t wanna cry now
I don’t wanna cry now
There’s nothing to say, it’s not gonna change
Baby, I’m the one to blame
I don’t wanna cry now
I don’t wanna cry now
There’s nothing to say, it’s not gonna change
Baby, I’m the one to blame
I know that I said I’d forgive you once, but, baby
It’s been a hundred times and I still crawl back for more
I should cause a scene for shit you’ve done to me
The saddest part is we both know that I would never leave
You know how it goes, everybody knows
I’m just another hand you hold
I don’t wanna cry now
I don’t wanna cry now
There’s nothing to say, it’s not gonna change
Baby, I’m the one to blame
I don’t wanna cry now
I don’t wanna cry now
There’s nothing to say, it’s not gonna change
Baby, I’m the one to blame
One day you’re gonna wake up
All that is left is my pillow and makeup
Saying c’est la vie ’cause, baby, the game’s up
Now I found another hand to hold
