Checking in 03:17
It's been ten years, ten years of this I loved you truely but you always disguised what you felt If it's true well baby let it show Don't go wasting no more time on the circus sideshow When you come round are you just checking to see that I'm still here? That I survived your cruelty Just checking that I'm still alive. Just checking that I survived Just checking that I'm still alive. Just checking that I survived your cruelty Are you gonna torture me some more or, or set me free? It seems like freedom is a rumour that I never see Cos I've been shackled to you for so long, tied up and it's all gone wrong Just checking in to see that I'm still alive Just checking that I survived your recent cruelty. Yeah I'm alive Yeah I'm alive Oh I survived, oh I'm alive Oh I survived, yeah I'm alive Oh I survived your cruelty Oh I survived your cruelty so you thought you would check back and see I'm still alive Oh I survived your cruelty Oh I survived your cruelty and so you thought you would check back that I'm still alive I'm alive I'm alive And I survived your cruelty, oh you wanted to see if I was still alive after all you've done to me I'm still holding on

One day you'll look in her eyes and you'll know One day you'll feel sick 'cause you'll know that you let the wrong one go and kept the wrong ones close One day you'll know, one day you'll know One day you'll travel round to my door but I will not live here anymore One day I won't be around no One day I'll walk purgatory to escape you One day I'll fail and I'll fall apart Citing your name as the reason Citing your name for deciet and some Citing your name as the reason The reason I came undone One day I won't be around One day I won't be around One day I won't be around and you'll need me Oh one day I won't be around One day you'll be sorry You'll be sorry I'm sure but I won't be available for apologies then One day you'll be sorry, you'll be sorry I'm sure I won't be around I'll be broken by then I won't be around I'll be undone by then One day you'll be sorry but I won't be here One day you'll be sorry but I won't be here
3.
I never thought that was where our story would end but it is It is a fullstop it’s an exclamation mark it's a point of rejection we've reached It’s the point where forgiveness does not apply Oh don’t say you’re sorry cos I’m not listening now It’s the point where I’d unwrite every love song that I wrote for you And replace them with songs about all of the wrongs The wrongs that you do Cos I don’t think you’re cute anymore No I don’t think you’re cute anymore No I don’t think you’re cute anymore Oh I don’t think you’re cute anymore Oh it’s not cute, oh it’s just not cute, it’s not cute to be so rude Oh it’s not cute, it’s just not cute it’s just not cute to be that rude This is the point where forgiveness does not apply This is the point where you cannot buy affection from someone you cannot afford Oh this is the point where no forgiveness applies Oh this is the end of the line for us One fullstop One fullstop Cos it’s not cute to be so mean to boot somebody that ain’t fighting back Oh it’s not cute to be so rude I don’t think you’re cute anymore I don’t think you’re cute anymore it’s just not cute, it’s just not cute , it’s just not cute to be so rude it’s just not cute, it’s just not cute, it’s just not cute to be so rude There is nothing cute about you at all I take what I said back I break those words Oh it’s not just not cute, it’s just not cute be so rude It’s just not cute to be so rude
4.
I talk a good fight but I'm not a fighter I talk a good fight it's all bravado I talk a good fight I talk like I would hurt you I talk a good fight but I am gentle talk a good fight I talk like I am cruel I talk a good fight but I just love you Miss you already yeah I do I miss you already yeah I do (every inch of you) I miss you already yeah I do (every inch of you) Good luck, good luck, good luck pretending you're happy when you're not I said good luck cos you will need it I said goodbye but I've said goodbye before Look at it now Could we repair this? Now it's come so undone And so I say it was nice knowing you at times At times it's been a real shame (you've been so cruel) I miss you already yeah I do (every inch of you) I miss you already yeah I do (every inch of you) I miss you already yeah I do (every inch of you) I'll miss your smile the most I'll miss your eyes that glimmer oh I'll miss your smile the most And when it's time I guess I'll let go And maybe oneday you'll regret all that you've done I miss you already yeah I do (every inch of you) I miss you already yeah I do (every inch of you) I miss you already yeah I do (every inch of you)

You don't need to pretend no more You don't need to lead me on I see it I wasted my time trying to love a fool like you I wasted my time trying to be what you needed Time wasted loving you I won't get back Time wasted loving you I won't get back, I get it You don't need to put another knife in me There's plenty here all along my back You've hurt me Cos I know that real love don't feel like this Oh yeah I know that real love don't hurt like this Oh yeah I know that real love don't feel like this Oh yeah I know that real love don't hurt like this Oh yeah I know that real love don't hurt like this Don't feel like this Time wasted loving you Won't get it back and I know it ain't easy to move on Throw my hands in air I swear one more fool like you and I will break apart At least I know, at least I know it don't hurt Real love don't feel like this Time wasted loving you Real love don't hurt this love, don't hurt like this All those lines we crossed Oh you hurt me more You are so damn cruel Yeah you hurt me more regardless of what I do And I know real love don't feel like this Yeah I know real love don't hurt like this
8.
Is cruelty the only language you understand? You won't let me go from the web you've weaved You say you don't want me but then you are outside my door What am I meant to think if you don't speak? My friends say I got let go I gotta move on but I keep wondering what you want Why do you keep turning up everytime I try to let you go? Is there something inside that knows everytime I'm trying to let go? Why do you keep turning up everytime I try to let you go? Why do you keep turning up everytime I try to let you go? You're standing there Oh is betrayal the only thing you excel at? Would you not know how to have a happy ever after? And if you chose her why come round? Oh did you know that I was trying to let you go? Does something always tell you when I'm trying to let you go? How do you know everytime I'm trying to let you go? You always turn up when I try let go When I wanna let go When I'm wanna let go you're always there How do you know when I'm trying to let go? How do you know when I wanna let go? How do you know when I wanna let go? How do you know when I wanna let go? How do you know when I wanna let go? You're always standing there
9.
Wouldn't be tragic if I love you but you're too insecure to believe it Wouldn't be tragic if I gave my heart to the biggest ba*tard in this earth Wouldn't be tragic if the above was you Wouldn't be tragic if this was a love hate cycle Wouldn't be tragic if I see you in my dreams each night Wouldn't be tragic if I knew you dream of me too Wouldn't be tragic if you destroy me just to keep appearances up Wouldn't be tragic if I told the truth about you Wouldn't be tragic if everybody knew Oh wouldn't it be cruel Oh yeah if you've really let me go why are you so desperate just to look at me? Yeah if you've really have let me go why are you still up to your usual tricks? Wouldn't be tragic if I knew betrayal was your favourite pastime yet I still trusted you with my life Wouldn't be tragic if my world revolved around you Wouldn't be tragic if you insult the only one you love Wouldn't be tragic if I heard the things you wouldn't want me to hear Wouldn't be tragic if that info was leaked yeah if you've really let me go why are you so desperate just to look at me? Yeah if you've really have let me go why are you still up to your usual tricks? Wouldn't be tragic if I still loved you Wouldn't be tragic if nobody else would do Wouldn't be tragic if I kept coming back Wouldn't be tragic if you kept being cruel
