A little distance on my day off
I never claimed that I was different
And you were talking 'bout yourself, but
I could've sworn it was a mantra

Try to keep my mouth shut, throw me right up
Every time that you shove, I just get stuck
Telling me to get tough, testing my faith
But I couldn't complicate it

I'm telling you you've earned it
(I'm telling you you've earned it)
When we were feeling so set
(When we were feeling so set)
I need another day to
(I need another day to)
Abandon all the trust
And take away the love I gave you

Cut me up and keep me open
Oh, it won't hurt me in the morning
I'll leave the lightness for the long days
For when I really have my head straight

And you were on the right track with the wrong man
You know you're a good girl, g-g-gone bad
You could tell me bad things, no, I don't mind
And I could forget about it

I'm telling you you've earned it
When we were feeling so set
I need another day to
Abandon all the trust
And take away the love I gave you

And we were bleeding sunset
(And we were bleeding sunset)
But I would never go back
(But I would never go back)
To when I used to play you
(To when I used to play you)
I never was enough
But you say I'm the one to change you
