fool 03:04
[VERSE 1] Why d’you always blame somebody else for your actions? I put you up on this shelf, just watched it happen. You’ve gone too far over the line, leaving me behind, and now you can’t see That baby you just can’t come back, back to me. [PRE] Over again, seeing it in my head, You on her, skin on skin, Saying that I’m what you need but boy you can’t pretend, cuz you want her, but you’re pulling me in. [CHORUS] I, feel like a fool like a fool for loving you, I feel like a fool, I feel like a fool like a fool for loving you, I, I, I [VERSE 2] All this weight is dragging me down, tryna compromise, Maybe I was weak, cuz I believed and carried your lies. I thought you had a conscious, thought I knew the truth, all I ever wanted was to hear it from you. Cuz baby we just can’t go back, but I can't move… [PRE] Over again, seeing it in my head, You on her, skin on skin, Saying that I’m what you need but boy you can’t pretend, cuz you want her, but you’re pulling me in. [CHORUS] I, feel like a fool like a fool for loving you, I feel like a fool, I feel like a fool like a fool for loving you, I, I, I

18 again 03:56
[VERSE 1] Sometimes, I wonder what it would have been like, if we hadn’t of met that night, If I never knew you. Other days, I remember the good times, and then I wanna rewind cuz I know that it would’ve been better When I didn’t know your name or your favourite thing to drink, the way you just need to drive when you can’t think Wish I didn’t know everything… [PRE] Cuz maybe then it wouldn’t hurt so much, I wouldn’t miss you the away I do I wouldn’t be thinking of you and all the things that I can’t undo. [CHORUS] I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be 18 again back when, back when, when we were still friends I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be 18 again before it was the end, when we didn’t have to pretend I, I, I wanna be, I, I, I I wanna be I [VERSE 2] I wonder, if I’ll be able to erase, the way you used to say my name, and the way you held me. Will there ever be somebody else, who makes me feel the way I felt, when it was you and me together… Wish I didn’t know your name or your favourite thing to drink, the way you just need to drive when you can’t think Wish I didn’t know everything… wish I wasn’t faded. Now I sitting here alone, with a glass full of regret, Everyone’s asking why you’re not there But if you were never there… [PRE] Maybe then it wouldn’t hurt so much, I wouldn’t miss you the away I do I wouldn’t be thinking of you and all the things I can’t undo. [CHORUS] I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be 18 again back when, back when we were still friends I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be 18 again back when, back when, when we didn’t have to pretend Back when it was simple, before the end back when it was easy, I wanna, I wanna forget … Who you are… [BRIDGE] I know we can’t turn back, but would you even want to, if you had the option, I know I would go back to... When I didn’t know your name or your favourite thing to drink, the way you just need to drive when you can’t think Wish I didn’t know everything… wish I wasn’t faded. Now I sitting here alone, with a glass full of regret, Everyone’s asking why you’re not there If you were never there… [PRE] Maybe then it wouldn’t hurt so much, I wouldn’t miss you the away I do I wouldn’t be thinking of you and all the things I can’t undo. [CHORUS] I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be 18 again back when, back when, when we were still friends I wanna be, I wanna be, I wanna be 18 again before it was the end, when we didn’t have to pretend I, I, I wanna be, I, I, I wanna be I

[Chorus:] I wish you were my ex that we'd break up and I'd wish you all the best close the curtain I wish you were the one that got away it would be easy if you were my ex, I wish you were my [drop] [mid 8] I don't remember why we shouldn't be together If we were lovers maybe then I could forget ya I don't remember why we ever stopped talking Guess in my head we were just way too toxic [Chorus:] I wish you were my ex that we'd break up and I'd wish you all the best close the curtain I wish you were the one that got away it would be easy if you were my ex, I wish you were my
