Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You know that you told her before
What did you want from me darling
You said that you always needed more
Another night
Another fight
Another night
Another fight
Don't be a whore

Don't say

One thing that I regret

Killin myself for you darling
Another night wasted and hurt
I learned you'd say anything
