Dating Your Potential

Текст песни

[Verse 1] I kept your name on my door Like it meant something more You were almost a man But you never stood tall Thirty-nine in your mother's room Calling that a plan I was making a home You were making me crawl [Pre-Chorus] I was your wife without vows Your comfort, your shield Your surrogate life While you stayed unrealed [Chorus] I am done with your potential Done with what you might be (what you might be) I am done with the circles Done with the hurting on repeat (repeat) You said love, then you lied You said stay, then you hide I am done with your potential Now I choose me [Verse 2] Green pills in the ashtray glow Promises on the floor Then you looked me dead in the face Said I was the problem Hit me with your blame-shift songs Then you begged me back DARVO in the same old room And I kept on falling [Pre-Chorus] Fight, then sorry, then touch Then the cycle began I was angry and loud 'Cause you broke what you can [Chorus] I am done with your potential Done with what you might be (what you might be) I am done with the circles Done with the hurting on repeat (repeat) You said love, then you lied You said stay, then you hide I am done with your potential Now I choose me [Bridge] I don't owe you my soft parts I don't owe you my years I was trying to save us While you fed me my fears No more "maybe tomorrow" No more "this time, babe" I can love what was real And still walk away [Final Chorus] I am done with your potential Done with what you might be (what you might be) I am done with the circles Done with the hurting on repeat (repeat) You said love, then you lied You said stay, then you hide I am done with your potential Now I choose me [Outro] Now I choose me Now I choose me I am done with your potential Now I choose me
