I heard you started runnin' your mouth again Bitin' hands that feed ya
A little birdy told me you're nobody's friend And the joke's on me, yeah
Well, baby, who are you to underestimate me? Smilin' in my face as you take your aim
I tried to be your friend I won't make that mistake again I won't make that mistake again
* I can't dance with the devil on my back Need somebody who can meet me where I'm at
These dark days are knockin' on my door You ain't welcome 'round here no more
On a different level than I was before You can't bring me down to you
Can't bring me down Can't bring me down You can't bring me down
You can't bring me down to you
I can't keep doin' this to myself again Crossin' hearts that bleed ya
Saw this comin', but I didn't want it to end My eyes are wide and I see ya
Yeah, baby, who are you to go and drag my name? Livin' in your skin has got to feel so fake
I tried to be your friend I won't make that mistake again I won't make that mistake again
( * )
It must be cold in your veins And now I know you'll never change
I don't wanna be your friend Can't do that again
