Alyssa Light Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
tell me that youre sorry
tell me why we never could finish what we started
look me in the eyes when you apologize for the last time
this is the last time baby
you know how it feels to fall
built this wall afterall
ready for the curtin call
im outta the woods and this time im gone for good
the taste of your name is so criminal
you put a bullet through my heart like murder she wrote
that made me stronger
than ever before
I know im better off without your love
i know
i know
i know im better off without your love
i know
i know
i know im better off without your love
show me all your scars its too late to be cautious
i know you feel the pressure but its too late to recall it
tell me that you love me
tell me how your sorry for the last time
this is the last time baby
tell me where the tables turned
