That Boy Was Never Gonna Change歌词
作词 : MADILYN
Bad bets, regrets
The evidence outweighed the defense
Even then I kept all your secrets
Every time you cross the line
And it makes no sense
I'm on trial if the crime is yours then
Why am I the one paying for it?
When I've already done my time
But now I've got that hindsight
Bird's eye view from so high, up in the sky
I'd go back in time
I'd tell myself every time that he said he tired
He lied
Save your pennies and your nickels and your dimes
You'll be waiting here a very long time
That boy was never
No that boy was never
You could spend your twenties wishing that he might
But you might be waiting the rest of your life
That boy was never
No that boy was never gonna change
All my grieving
Done on display while they watch critiquing
Buried my heart while it was still beating
As vultures circling the sky
Whispered treasons
It's like I'm awake at my wake, I'm screaming
Why are they acting like I can't hear them?
How could she not have seen the signs?
But now I've got that hindsight
Bird's eye view from so high, up in the sky
I'd go back in time
I'd tell myself "When you felt something wasn't right"
"You were right"
Save your pennies and your nickels and your dimes
You'll be waiting here a very long time
That boy was never
No that boy was never
You could spend your twenties wishing that he might
But you might be waiting the rest of your life
That boy was never
No that boy was never gonna change
But if I had penny for every lie
Every tear that I've cried
For a stupid boy
I would die the wealthiest woman alive
And just to spite you I might
With every song that I write
Diamonds every time someone streams this line
We might be splitting out things in half
But you're getting more than that
My youth, my trust, my body
All the things I can't get back, no
Can you give me that back?
You can't give me that back
The damage is done
The cost is sunk
The war is over, but nobody won
I'm empty handed while you're holding the gun
If you want my two cents just run
Save your pennies and your nickels and your dimes
You'll be waiting here a very long time
That boy was never
No that boy was never
You could spend your twenties wishing that he might
But you might be waiting the rest of your life
That boy was never
No that boy was never gonna change
Bad bets, regrets
The evidence outweighed the defense
Even then I kept all your secrets
Every time you cross the line
And it makes no sense
I'm on trial if the crime is yours then
Why am I the one paying for it?
