All I got left are the marks on my neck
After you let me go
It's hard to forget when you messed up my head
'Cause I let you get too close, yeah
I should've never, have never, have never opened my heart again
Wasn't worth it
Why did I let you, I let you, I let you get all under my skin?
Wasn't worth it
On the surface, you were perfect
But you didn't really come to stay
Now when I look in the mirror
I slowly watch you fade away
'Cause all I got left are the marks on my neck
After you let me go
It's hard to forget when you messed up my head
'Cause I let you get too close
Now all I got left are the marks on my neck
After you let me go
It's hard to forget when you messed up my head
'Cause I let you get too close, yeah
I tried to cover it, cover it, cover it with foundation
Didn't help it
Tried to get over you, over you, over you, but you dug in
And I felt it
On the surface (on the surface), you were perfect (perfect)
But you didn't really come to stay (didn't really come to stay)
Now when I look (when I look) in the mirror (in the mirror)
I slowly watch you fade away
'Cause all I got left are the marks on my neck
After you let me go
It's hard to forget when you messed up my head
'Cause I let you get too close (oh, no)
Now, all I got left are the marks on my neck
After you let me go (let me go)
It's hard to forget when you messed up my head
'Cause I let you get too close, yeah
It's hard to forget when you messed up my head
'Cause I let you get too close
