Wrong
Get Scared Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Just take it back, take it back
You were wrong
You always took from me
You always lied to me
while I tried to fake a smile

Is the only way
That you know how to play
Watch me prove you wrong
You're always telling me to bite my tongue

You were wrong, you blamed me
Just take it back, take it back
I was blind, whoa, you were wrong
You blamed me
Just take it back, take it back
I was blind, you were wrong

You always took away
Never giving anything
So I lied
But trust me I'm alright
I tried to find my way
I tried to find my place
It's so hard (It's so hard)
'Cause you've poisoned my mind

You're always telling me to bite my tongue

You were wrong, you blame me
Just take it back, take it back
I was blind, whoa, you were wrong
You blame me
Just take it back, take it back
I was blind, and you were wrong

I finally have a taste
Of what it's like to take away
You're done for, watch it slip away

That thing you try to hide
Will eat you up, kill your insides
You're fading, you've lost your way

You were wrong, you blame me
Just take it back, take it back
I was blind, whoa, you were wrong
You blamed me
Just take it back, take it back
I was blind, and you were wrong

You blame me
Just take it back, take it back
I was blind, whoa, you were wrong
You were wrong, you blamed me
Just take it back, take it back




I was blind, you were wrong
You were wrong, you were wrong
