Been here before
Revolving door
We're caught up and I don't know what for
Anymore
We had the best
And nothing less
But the second we fell out of step
You up and left
This is so you, this is what you do
You'd rather make do than make a move
What'll it take now, how do I make
This matter enough to you?
Say you're a mess
Say it's a shame
Why can't you at least pretend?
Say I should leave
You're over me
Say something, say anything
Anything
Say anything
Please
What happened to
The plans we made
And that contagious smile upon your face?
It's all begun to fade
You used to be
So careful with me
Making sure that we would always be
Each others' missing piece
Well, we can still save
These tattered pages
What do you say we
Start over baby?

[Verse 1]
How many times have you used that line?
Did you replace the last two dozen names with mine?
Is "I love you, baby" second nature by now?
'Cause it sounds awful rehearsed when the words leave your mouth
I don't know why but it seems
That I'm not the first to have heard this speech
Is this a routine you just repeat?
'Cause I don't mean to presume
That you don't love me like you say you do
But you're gonna have to prove that you're true
And you're not just talkin' smooth
[Verse 2]
Your performance deserves an Academy Award
And it's a double edged sword 'cause I sure feel adored
But just between us I'd rather see you slip up
Don't you know that it's those less than perfect words I can't get enough of
Maybe I'm outta my head
But I'm telling you baby that I've been misled
so if the record's off, well could you get it set?

[Verse 1]
A little tough love never hurt nobody
Never saw this coming
This side of me
I know where you're goin' with your sugar-laced talkin'
And it wasn't too hard to see
You think you got me right where you want me
You think you got the whole story
But I think that a proper fair warning
Might serve you well
So I'm here to tell you
[Chorus]
It's not too late to do yourself a favor
And walk away
Though I know that's never been your nature
By the way
You've put yourself in danger 'cause you're playing with my heart
Playing with my heart
You're playing with my heart
[Verse 2]
Every good girl's got a real good reason
To believe in breaking all the rules sometimes
And I'm that girl, baby you're that reason
And your scheming has caused me to cross the line
You lie, but I'm a pretty good liar
