[Verse 1]
Driving down a different road
Going somewhere I know
So why do I feel you’re different than me?
It’s already like I’ve put the high road beneath me

Well you’re still sad, and I’m very alone
If you say it’s over, I’m sober now
For that, we’re not that different baby
But now I’ve realized that nobody likes me

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I don’t need no one in my place, no no no!
And if you think I do then you don’t know about me
You won’t know until the morning
When you’ve used up all your chances, so go away

I know you’ll never fall in love
And move on
But I should have known you still hate me
Because I don’t take it

[Chorus 1]
So lay off of me baby
I don’t wanna listen to you cry now, and I know
Because I see what’s going down
Why don’t you think about how I feel?
Stay off of me baby
I don’t wanna listen to you cry now
Why do you always leave me out?
So say what’s going down right now
[Verse 2]
We don’t have to be together
You’re the one that believed I’d be with you one day
It’s not that I care
That the bottle made me lose somebody

Well now I know you did it
When we talk, I hear
I’m driving down, back on the road
And I’m going somewhere, well I didn’t know

[Breakdown]
I like my back garden much more than I like my porch
You know I’d let you see, try to walk with me at night
In my backyard with my lamp torch and me
You know that every time you’re with me, I became afraid of hurt
Your love’s like pain to me, now end this
And you better listen to yourself

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Well nobody knows my pain, no no no
You know I’d never try to hurt you
Please let me know before you leave
Now I think you’re gonna step on my heart again

I just want to know
Are you messing with me?
I miss that summer evening
When you kissed me
[Chorus 2]
Lay off of me baby
I don’t wanna listen to you cry now
I know, how about instead of leaving me out
I want you to listen right now
Stay off of me baby
I don’t wanna listen to you cry now
Why are you always leaving me out?
Well say what you’ve been wanting right now

[Outro]
Right now

Oo
