lyrics

Let the curtain close, tell all the spectators they can go home
‘Cause now I know it was all just for show
It’s about damn time; took me too long, but I finally realized
That every word out of your mouth was a well crafted line

You were pretty damn good at playing it cool
But I’m pretty damn over it, won’t play no fool, no I won’t

Someone else can be lonely when you never come home
Someone else can keep waiting up day and night checking for you on her phone
Someone else can go crazy while you’re wasting her time
Someone else can be the heart that you break, ‘cause it won’t be mine

Well, let the credits roll and tell all the people the star of this show
Is the girl in the back who keeps crying ‘cause I sold my soul

Oh, to a man who romanticized breaking a heart
And he chose to break mine because I looked the part, yes I did

But someone else can be lonely when you never come home
Someone else can keep waiting up day and night checking for you on her phone
Someone else can go crazy while you’re wasting her time
Someone else can be the heart that you break, ‘cause it won’t be mine

Did I please the crowd? Up on their feet and they’re clapping so loud
Well, you take the glory, baby, I’ll just take my bow

And someone else can be lonely when you never come home
Someone else can keep waiting up day and night checking for you on her phone
And someone else can go crazy while you’re wasting her time
Someone else can be the heart that you break, ‘cause it won’t be mine

Let the curtain close, tell all the spectators they can go home
‘Cause now I know it was all just for show
