You're No Good.


Tell me what to do, when I've got no where to turn.

You only build me up, to just tear me down.

You'd think by now I'd learn, I should be fooled by your soothing words.

You've got a a smile that can turn night into day,

but in the blink of an eye everything could change.

You say that you love me, but I don't know if you do.

Tell me what to do, when the one I should be running from is you.

You pull me in and I can't get out,

I try to leave but I don't know how to,

stop myself from loving you.

You're an angel and a nightmare all in one.

Should I stay? Should I run?

I'd go back and never fallen if I could.

I should know by now that you're no good.

I know they say people change a lot.

Does he love me? Does he not?

The room's spinning fast, I don't know where to turn,

your love's a trap, by now you'd think I'd learn.
