[English]

I feel so good

I'm alive

Look at me singing through this feeling

I get when I'm high

Now that I'm over you

Look at you now

rocking over my love

Don't do this tonight, don't pretend you didn't leave me

for something new and I...

when I loved you

You made your bed

so lie in it

so lie in it

You made your bed

so lie in it

so lie in it

Don't I look nice

Whiskey on ice

I'm the side

There's nothing more to say just leave me to dance

through the night

Baby I had your day

Look at you now

rocking over my love

Don't do this tonight, don't pretend you didn't leave me

for something new and I...

when I loved you

You made your bed

so lie in it

so lie in it

You made your bed

so lie in it

so lie in it

I, I, I'm over you

so lie in it

so lie in it

You made your bed

so lie in it

so lie in it

Put your arms around my dress

with a name across your chest

You made your bed

so lie in it

so lie in it

You made your bed

so lie in it

so lie in it

You made your bed

so lie in it

so lie in it

I, I, I'm over you

so lie in it

so lie in it

You made your bed

so lie in it

so lie in it

Don't cry in it
