Last Time We Spoke

WHEN YOU CALLED...
YOUR VOICE CUT LIKE A BLADE
I KNEW IT WOULD BE
THE LAST TIME WE EVER PLAYED

YOU SAID SOMETHING I COULDN’T BEAR
I HEARD IT CLEAR – I DIDN’T CARE
YOU DROPPED THE MATCH, SET IT ALIGHT
AND VANISHED INTO DEAD OF NIGHT

THE LAST TIME WE SPOKE
YOU CRACKED ME OPEN
BUT I WON’T CHOKE

WHAT DID I – WHAT DID I
WHAT DID I
WHAT DID I DO TO YOU?
YOU SWORE YOU LOVED ME

BUT YOU CURSED ME THROUGH AND THROUGH
SCREAMING LIKE A STORM AT SEA
FACE TURNED BLUE, DROWNING ME
(WHAT DID I DO TO YOU?)

I FEEL LIKE I’M JUST FALLING SHORT
NEVER THE GIRL YOU WERE FIGHTING FOR
I GAVE YOU BLOOD, YOU GAVE ME WAR
NOW I’M CRAWLING BACK NO MORE

I WAS A SLAVE TO YOUR SPLIT-TONGUE KISS
YOU PLAYED MY MIND IN THE DARKNESS
THERE’S NO GOLD IN THAT RING OF SHAME
NO VOWS, NO TRUTH – JUST A TWISTED GAME

YOU CALL THE SHOTS
I TAKE THE HIT
I POUR THE DRINKS
YOU LIGHT THE WICK

I WAS YOUR PUPPET
SCARRED BY YOUR NAME
NOW I’M FIRE
NOW I’M FLAME

IT’S A HARD TIME
GETTING THROUGH
EVERY DAMN DAY
THINKING ABOUT YOU

YOU KNEW ME DEEP
THEN LEFT ME BLIND
GIRL, YOU KILLED ME
ONE LAST TIME

WHAT DID I – WHAT DID I
WHAT DID I
WHAT DID I DO TO YOU?

YOU SAID YOU’D STAY
BUT YOUR GOODBYE RIPPED ME IN TWO
I WORE THE CHAINS
NOW I BROKE STRAIGHT THROUGH
YOU’LL NEVER OWN
THIS FIRE IN ME –
I’M NOT YOURS
I’M FINALLY FREE

HEY! HEY! HEY!
SHE’S NOT YOUR NAME!
HEY! HEY! HEY!
SHE’S HER OWN FLAME!
HEY! HEY! HEY!
SHE’S NOT YOUR NAME!

LAST TIME! WE SPOKE!

I SET MYSELF FREE!
