You never saw me comin'
I never wanted nothin' to do with you
Do with you
The gun was in your hand
You were angry like a man
You said, "Cut me loose, cut me loose"

And I do want to make it back to you
Clipped my wings but I still flew
Can't go back to the old you, that's not you

I could never understand
How to meet all your demands
Push your point of view 'til it isn't true
It gets so dark before the dawn
I got no shelter from your arms
So I cut you loose, cut you loose

And I do want to make it back to you
Clipped my wings but I still flew
I can't go back to the old you
That's not you
And I do want to make it back to you
Clipped my wings but I still flew
I can't go back to the old you
That's not you

Bad times, you must've left me at the right time
Inside showin' on the outside
Every time I went back inside
You reminded me of how I went down
Now nothing's movin', I'm a thin sound
Static buzzin' on the cold ground
'Til all that's left are the hopeless and the broken ones

Every lie you picked apart
It put an arrow through your heart
I could feel it too, feel it too
You were screamin' in the rain
There was no way I could explain
So I cut you loose, cut you loose

And I do want to make it back to you
Clipped my wings but I still flew
I can't go back to the old you
That's not you
And I do want to make it back to you
Clipped my wings but I still flew
I can't go back to the old you
That's not you

And I do want to make it back to you
Clipped my wings but I still flew
Can't go back to the old you
That's not you
