[Verse 1]
I can feel a familiar pull
Gravity’s got nothing on you
‘Cause when you wanted me back
I would’ve walked on glass if I had to
We keep running the same circle
And I’ve got a bad case of déjà vu
Replay the phrase “one more chance”
Know it’s probably not the right thing to do

[Chorus]
But if I chose to stay
Guess I haven’t had enough
Almost killed me once before
And convinced me it was love
So if I make the trade
My life to keep you close
Maybe I’m the one to blame
Can’t say I didn’t know

[Post-Chorus]
Feelings I’ve been tryna keep down
Always find a way to rebound
And I don’t know what to bеlieve now
They say, “Lеave now, leave now”
I hear ’em, but my heart is stubborn
In one ear and out the other
‘Cause what if I would rather suffer
Than leave now, leave now?

[Verse 2]
I’d do anything for you, don’t say you feel the same
If you really did, you wouldn’t remake your mistakes
You just fill me in with empty promises to change
Let the broken record play, but I don’t wanna hear it now
You had one too many chances to turn it around
Every time I let you back and you just send me down

How am I supposed to leave right now if my heart won’t walk away?

[Chorus]
So if I chose to stay
Guess I haven’t had enough
Almost killed me once before
And convinced me it was love
So if I make the trade
My life to keep you close
Maybe I’m the one to blame
Can’t say I didn’t know

[Post-Chorus]
Feelings I’ve been tryna keep down
Always find a way to rebound
And I don’t know what to believe now
They say, “Leave now, leave now” (Can’t say I didn’t know)
I hear ’em, but my heart is stubborn
In one ear and out the other
‘Cause what if I would rather suffer
Than leave now, leave now? (Can’t say I didn’t know)

[Bridge]
(I can’t break the cycle) Feelings I’ve been tryna keep down
Always find a way to rebound (Every time I go back to you)
And I don’t know what to believe now
They say, “Leave now, leave now” (Can’t say I didn’t know)
(I can’t break the cycle) I hear ’em, but my heart is stubborn
In one ear and out the other (Every time I go back to you)
‘Cause what if I would rather suffer
Than leave now, leave now? (Can’t say I didn’t know)
(But if I chose to stay) Feelings I’ve been tryna keep down
Always find a way to rebound (Guess I haven’t had enough)
(And I don’t know what to believe now) Almost killed me once before
(They say, “Leave now, leave now”) And convinced me it was love (Can’t say I didn’t know)
So if I make the trade (I can’t break the cycle)
My life to keep you close (Every time I go back to you)
(And I don’t know what to believe now) Maybe I’m the one to blame
(They say, “Leave now, leave now”) Can’t say I didn’t know

[Outro]
I can’t break the cycle
Every time I go back to you (Can’t say I didn’t know)
I can’t break the cycle
Every time I go back to you (Can’t say I didn’t know)
I can’t break the cycle
Every time I go back to you
I can’t break the cycle
Every time I go back to you
