lyrics

I tried it.

(Verse)
Mister, Mister—
how could you do me this way?
I thought it was good
I thought it was real
so I put down my walls,
and I did everything

but you didn’t listen

(Chorus)
Just step back

and

Just step back
learn him first
I
try to figure out
and I really wish,
I wish I was right this time

(Bridge)
Well, I’m giving it up
Giving it up
Giving it up
