Lyrics

You promised the world and I fell For it
I put you first and you adored it
Set fires to my forest
And you let it burn
Sang off-key in my chorus
'Cause it wasn't yours, yeah
I saw the signs and I ignored it
Rose-colored glasses all distorted
Set fire to my purpose
And I let it burn
You got off on the hurtin'
When it wasn't yours, yeah
We'd always go into it blindly
I needed to lose you to find me
This dancing was killing me softly
I needed to hate you to love me, yeah
To love, love
To love, love
To love, yeah
I needed to lose you to love me, yeah
To love, love
To love, love
To love, yeah
I needed to lose you to love me, yeah
I gave my all and they all know it
Then you tore me down and now it's
Showing In two months you replaced us
Like it was easy
Made me think I deserved it
In the thick of healing, yeah
We'd always go into it blindly
I needed to lose you to find me
This dancing was killing me softly
I needed to hate you to love me, yeah
To love, love
To love, love, yeah
To love, love
To love, love, yeah
We'd always go into it blindly
I needed to lose you to find me
This dancing was killing me softly
I needed to hate you to love me, yeah
To love, love
To love, love
To love, yeah
I needed to lose you to love me, yeah
To love, love
To love, love
To love, yeah
I needed to lose you to love me, yeah
To love, love
To love, love
To love, yeah
I needed to lose you to love me, yeah
To love, love
To love, love
To love, yeah
I needed to lose you to love me, yeah
To love, love
To love, love, yeah
To love, love
To love, love, yeah
