lyrics

Just wait she said
It's running through my head
I should've kept my mouth shut from the start
I know that I'm at it again
I'm on top of the world
But it all still falls apart

Call it a close one
Call it a shot in the dark
But I'm better than you think I am

Let's not play pretend
This was always going to end
Play with fire and you're asking to get burned
To be honest I'm still on this
I can't get you out of my mind
I gave you everything but you can guess what I got in return

I've got nothing left to lose
How can I let myself down
I don't care what you say
Second chances never come around
Far too late I see
I'm just another trophy on your shelf
I did this to myself

So sing your songs
And I'll sing mine
Leave me here and I'll be fine
I'm not going to make you choose
But if I'm hanging
Cut me loose
Throw the memories away
There might not be a better day
I'm a king without a kingdom and my crown's on someone else

I've got nothing left to lose
How can I let myself down
I don't care what you say
Second chances never come around
Far too late I see
I'm just another trophy on your shelf
I did this to myself

Take all of me
Make me something
More than I was meant to be
Break all of me
Just an empty shell
Running on what I was meant to be

I've got nothing left to lose
How can I let myself down
I don't care what you say
Second chances never come around
Far too late I see
I'm just another trophy on your shelf
I did this to myself
