Once more, I'll say goodbye to you
Things happen, but we don't really know why
If it's supposed to be like this
Why do most of us ignore the chance to miss?

Oh yeah

Torn apart at the seams and my dreams turn to tears
I'm not feeling this situation
Run away, try to find that same place you can't hide
It's the best place to be when you're feeling like
Me, me, yeah, yeah
All these things I hate revolve around
Me, me, yeah, yeah
Just back off before I snap

Once more you tell those lies to me
Why can't you just be straight up with honesty?
When you say those things in my ear
Why do you always tell me what you wanna hear?

Oh yeah

Wear your heart on your sleeve, make things hard to believe
I'm not feeling this situation
Run away, try to find that same place you can't hide
It's the best place to be when you're feeling like
Me, me, yeah, yeah
All these things I hate revolve around
Me, me, yeah, yeah
Just back off before I snap, and you'll see
Me, me, me
All these things I hate revolve around
Me, me, yeah, yeah
Just back off before I snap

Torn apart at the seams are my dreams to the tears
I'm not feeling this situation
Run away, try to find that same place you can't hide
It's the best place to be when you're feeling like me

It's the best place to be when you're
Me, me, yeah, yeah
All these things I hate revolve around
Me, me, yeah, yeah
Just back off before I snap, and you'll see
Me, me, all these things I hate revolve around
Me, me, yeah, yeah
Just back off before I snap
