Sick Of You
Selena Gomez The Scene Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You know fairy tales don't come true
Not when it comes to you
Open up for the first time
And you can bet that it's the last time

And I'm cool with laying low
Saturday night I'm staying at home
I'm feeling good for the first time
It's been a while since the last time

I will wave goodbye when you say hello (whoa)

I'm sick of the sleepless, never-ending nights
I just don't care who was wrong or right
I'm sick of the rumors and the alibis
You tear me up, I'll cut you down inside

I'm s-s-so sick of you, so sick of you
Sick of all of your little lies
I'm s-s-so sick of you, so sick of you
Sick of all the girls by your side
What you don't know is how great it feels
To let you go

I get your game, it's so see-through
You know I'm way too good for you
Movin' on to the next time
Drop the baggage and I'll be fine

When it's time to reminisce
You're gonna realize you miss this
You're in my mind for the last time
And at the most you were a past time

I will wave goodbye when you say hello (whoa)

I'm sick of the sleepless, never-ending nights
I just don't care who was wrong or right
I'm sick of the rumors and the alibis
You tear me up, I'll cut you down inside

I'm s-s-so sick of you, so sick of you
Sick of all of your little lies
I'm s-s-so sick of you, so sick of you
Sick of feeling right by your side
What you don't know is how great it feels
To let you go

I'm happier alone
Taking all your pictures and I'll throw those memories

Sick of you, so sick of you
Sick of all your little lies

I'm sick of the sleepless, never-ending nights
I just don't care who was wrong or right
I'm sick of the rumors and the alibis
You tear me up, I'll cut you down inside

I'm s-s-so sick of you, so sick of you
Sick of all of your little lies
I'm s-s-so sick of you, so sick of you
So I'm getting on with my life
I'm s-s-so sick of you, so sick of you
I'm so sick of you,
I'm s-s-so sick of you, so sick of you (ho-whoa)





What you don't know is how great it feels
To let you go
