lyrics
[chorus]
I'll burn the bridges that lead back to you
I really meant it when I said "We're through"
so moving forward is all I can do
and I know someday I'll forget about you
[verse 1]
I don't know why I thought you were special
the feeling wasn't real, so I had to let go
you & I are on two different waves
it's something I realized a little too late
I do what I want & I wanna get faded
I was into dating, & then I felt jaded
like I'm someone that love has always evaded
I hate this feeling, so I'm tryna shake it
I'll roll my weed in a love letter, then blaze it
give it some time, I'll be feeling amazing
same as the way that it was when we met
I'ma stay in my lane & go on to the next
don't place all your bets in one basket
it's like going for a kiss that'll put you in a casket
yeah, I had to learn the hard way
it seemed like the whole thing was tragic
[bridge 1]
(I got caught up in the games
playing with a match & some gas,
now I gotta put out the flames
standing under gray clouds, trying to find the sunlight in the rain)
I got caught up in the games
playing with a match & some gas,
now I gotta put out the flames
and I'm tryna find the sunlight in the rain
[chorus]
[verse 2] (2x)
so many times you've tried putting me to shame
but now I'm done playing all the mind games
I got a new pack of matches waiting to make some flames
so let me light 'em up!
[bridge 2]
I don't hate you & I don't love you
I just want your memory out of my head
[chorus]
