Lyrics
You were a life lesson
a mistake that had to be made
words were your weapon
you never left me unscathed
(pre-chorus)
I used to hang on every word you say
you don't get to rewrite my pain
(chorus)
I don't wanna listen
I'm not listening anymore
Your words are empty
your actions showed me much more
I cleaned up the pieces
left scattered on the floor
Now I know exactly
who I'm living for
(Verse 2)
Why'd you hurt me?
Just to watch me fall?
you played with love
like it meant nothing at all
I believed in what we never had
Now I'm giving you back your blame
(chorus)
I don't wanna listen
I'm not listening anymore
Your words are empty
your actions showed me much more
I cleaned up the pieces
left scattered on the floor
Now I know exactly
who I'm living for
(Bridge)
You thought you broke me down
but I'm stronger now, I'm found
Peace in the truth you tried to hide
Now my heart has cut its ties
(Final chorus)
I don't wanna listen
I'm not listening anymore
You had your moment
but I walked out that door
I cleaned up your chaos
and I'm not yours anymore
Now I know with fire and grace
Exactly who I'm living for
(Outro)
You thought you had me
but you never measured up
My mind's been freed
and there's no more mess to clean up
