[English]

You tossed me like a stone

You swept me off my feet

And I can't feel my bones

I still count the days

You swept me off my feet

I keep going high, she keeps going low

Somethin' feels wrong right now, I know

Somethin' feels wrong

You don't wait for me 'cause I keep breathin' fire

I won't wait for you 'cause you keep telling lies

I keep goin' high, she keeps goin' low

At the end of the day, she's gone

But you don't wait for me 'cause I keep breathin' fire

And you keep tellin' lies

You played me like a game

You told me it was fine

But I could feel the pain

It's been so many days

I still feel the pain

I still feel the pain

I keep going high, she keeps going low

Somethin' feels wrong right now, I know

Somethin' feels wrong

You don't wait for me 'cause I keep breathin' fire

I won't wait for you 'cause you keep tellin' lies

I keep goin' high, she keeps goin' low

At the end of the day, she's gone

But you don't wait for me 'cause I keep breathin' fire

And you keep tellin' lies

I keep goin' high, she keeps goin' low

At the end of the day, she's gone

But you don't wait for me 'cause I keep breathin' fire

And you keep tellin' lies

I still count the days

I still feel the pain

You don't wait for me 'cause I keep breathin' fire

I won't wait for you 'cause you keep tellin' lies

I keep goin' high, she keeps goin' low

At the end of the day, she's gone

But you don't wait for me 'cause I keep breathin' fire

And you keep tellin' lies

I keep goin' high, she keeps goin' low

At the end of the day, she's gone

But you don't wait for me 'cause I keep breathin' fire

And you keep tellin' lies
