Lexi
Alex Kehm Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Never really loved her
But they said just to give it a try
Wouldn't let me warn her
Kissed me in the corner
This doesn′t really feel right
Don't worry about the side effects"
She said that, "I will treat you right again
I'm all you′ll ever need"
Bent over backwards just to follow your dreams
Your voice like venom slowly killing me
You said I ruined you
I said, "I′m through with you"
I'm through with you
Got this pain in my chest
Still, I wish her the best
Though deep down I know she′s still around
Got this pain in my chest
Still, I wish her the best
Even though she made me lose control
Bent over backwards just to follow your dreams
Your voice like venom slowly killing me
You said I ruined you
I said, "I'm through with you"
I′m through with you
You said I ruined you
I said, "I'm through with you"
I′m through with you
