Lyrics
OhhhhhhOhhhhhhhhhhhOhhhhhhhhhhhhhh OhhhhhhOhhhhhhhhhhhOhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

How you mean What you mean You're not coming back I call you later, and you're outside You always criz-criticize my hair Go as close, you peep inside my head

You're always down for it Get in this get away, and be runnin' from me Yeah, you are always down for it Get in this get away, and be runnin' from me

You're giving my the coldest stare Like you don't even know I'm here Why don't we turn and leave Why don't we turn and Why don't we turn and leave Why don't we turn and

You're giving my the coldest stare Like you don't even know I'm here Why don't we turn and leave Why don't we turn and Why don't we turn and leave Why don't we turn and

What you've done What you've done You can keep inside By the end of the night I'll have you confined 'Cause I can see See sexself 'Cause I can see You're not bein' yourself

Cause usually you're down for it Can't hold back a smile when you try for it Yeah, cause usually you're down for it Can't hold back a smile when you try for it

You're giving my the coldest stare Like you don't even know I'm here Why don't you let me see Why don't you let me Why don't you let me see Why don't you let me

You're giving my the coldest stare Like you don't even know I'm here Why don't you let me see Why don't you let me Why don't you let me see Why don't you let me

What have you done a while back Hold on...hold on...hold on... [x3]

Hold on...hold on...hold on... [x2]

Why don't...why don't [x2]
