Lyrics 

 

Verse 1 

 

I’m swimming upstream 

 

Tryna forget the last time that you said you loved me 

 

Good luck charm but right now I’m not feeling lucky

 

The feeling after lying to me must be lovely 

 

Your self indulgence seems to found a way above me

 

Bring up your texts somehow your memory getting fuzzy 

 

No I’m not mad it’s all okay you wasn’t for me

 

 

Pre-Chorus

 

 Shame on me for trying

 

No no no

 

Shame on you for playing the game

 

Ain no truth applied in 

 

No no no 

 

A 22 yr old staying the same 

 

 

 

Chorus   

 

So dry your eyes

 

It’s no denying 

 

I know the lies 

 

And what you’re hiding 

 

See your disguise 

 

It’s pretty frightening 

 

And when you strike 

 

You hit like lightening 

 

So dry your eyes

 

It’s no denying 

 

I know the lies

 

And what you’re hiding 

 

See your disguise 

 

It’s pretty frightening 

 

And when you strike 

 

You hit like lightening 

 

 

 

Verse 2 

 

You said don’t interrupt me 

 

Thought we were good 

 

But then it ended all abruptly 

 

I cannot stay where I’m not wanted 

 

So I must leave 

 

On the day you stop responding 

 

I felt ugly 

 

 

Pre-Chorus

 

 Shame on me for trying

 

No no no

 

Shame on you for playing the game

 

Ain no truth applied in 

 

No no no 

 

A 22 yr old staying the same 

 

 

Chorus 

 

So dry your eyes

 

It’s no denying 

 

I know the lies 

 

And what you’re hiding 

 

See your disguise 

 

It’s pretty frightening 

 

And when you strike 

 

You hit like lightening 

 

So dry your eyes

 

It’s no denying 

 

I know the lies

 

And what you’re hiding 

 

See your disguise 

 

It’s pretty frightening 

 

And when you strike 

 

You hit like lightening
