Songwriter: Perry Lee Barber
No explanation is needed
I'd rather hear nothing than something that hurts
My words of love go unheeded
But I had it coming 'cause I hurt you first
Don't waste your time making sure your lightning has hit
I'm burned bad enough
Down and out now that you've struck
It feels like I'm stuck on the wrong side of love
Down and out now that you've struck
It feels like I'm stuck on the wrong side of love
I was never the one to be put in the wrong
My romances were part of the game
But I came undone after you came along
And the chances were never the same
Don't think I won't stay around
I've proved to myself that I can be brave
I sank in love and I drowned
But at least in an ocean and not just a wave
So thanks for the lesson my friend
But I can't win a game that I'm tired of
Feels like I'm fresh out of luck
It looks like I'm stuck on the wrong side of love
Down and out now that you've struck
It feels like I'm stuck on the wrong side of love
Down and out now that you've struck
It feels like I'm stuck on the wrong side of love
I'd rather hear nothing than something that hurts
My words of love go unheeded
But I had it coming 'cause I hurt you first
Don't waste your time making sure your lightning has hit
I'm burned bad enough
Down and out now that you've struck
It feels like I'm stuck on the wrong side of love
Down and out now that you've struck
It feels like I'm stuck on the wrong side of love
I was never the one to be put in the wrong
My romances were part of the game
But I came undone after you came along
And the chances were never the same
Don't think I won't stay around
I've proved to myself that I can be brave
I sank in love and I drowned
But at least in an ocean and not just a wave
So thanks for the lesson my friend
But I can't win a game that I'm tired of
Feels like I'm fresh out of luck
It looks like I'm stuck on the wrong side of love
Down and out now that you've struck
It feels like I'm stuck on the wrong side of love
Down and out now that you've struck
It feels like I'm stuck on the wrong side of love
