I took my chances 
I knew that you were trouble 
But you're like a magnet 
When you get closer, you pull me on
You said, we'll never go wrong 
A promise you can't keep 
Today, my memory's so long 
Long gone (could it be that) 

I'm better off, on my own 
Then you kick and you scream and you break me 
I'm thinkin' it's time that I'm gone 
Then you push and you pull and you string me along 
You play these waiting games 
But I'm finally tryin' to stake my claim with you 
I'm so tired of holdin' on 
When you string me along 

I might get stuck in 
This tangled web you're weavin' 
I'm like your puppet 
But you're strangling' my breathin' 
You said be patient with me 
To be honest, I can't hang 
Today these chains don't fit me and 
I'm not gonna play in your game (could it be that) 

I'm better off, on my own 
But you kick and you scream, and you break me 
I'm thinkin' it's time that I'm gone 
But you push and you pull and you string me along 
You keep on playing games 
But I'm finally tryin' to break away from you 
I'm so tired of holdin' on 
When you string me along 

A broken heart, a broken promise 
That's all you leave behind for me 
Lookin' up to you I lost focus 
Now I'll bring it back to where it used to be 
You make it so hard to do it 
And I know you don't want me to leave, Oh-no-no 
No, so you kick and scream and you push and you 
Pull, and you string me along 

I'm better off, on my own 
Then you kick and you scream and you break me 
I'm thinkin' it's time that I'm gone 
Then you push and you pull and you string me along 
You play these waiting games 
But I'm finally tryin' to stake my claim with you 
I'm so tired of holdin' on 
When you string me along
