Every time I get near your field of gravity
You look so sad to me, tell how could that be?
Ah, ah, she said things I obsess I would never confess
Ah, ah, I told her don’t dwell
That will leave you in hell
Sometimes things that you’re scorned for
You should be adored for
But like I told her, don’t dwell
I know, my love, that I look dilapidated
But are you glad I made it?
Can you tell me that much?
Ah, ah, why are you surprised I don’t take my advice?
Ah, ah, she told me don’t dwell
That will leave you in hell
Sometimes I need reminding
Regret is so blinding
But like I told me, don’t dwell
Everything is a choice
Go ahead, raise your voice
Might as well forgive yourself
That means more than someone else
Set you free, break the shell
To your demons farewell (ooh, na na na na)
I tell you, don’t dwell
Everything is a choice
Go ahead, raise your voice
Might as well forgive yourself
That means more than someone else
Set you free, break the shell
To your demons farewell (ooh, na na na na)
I tell you, don’t dwell
