Should've Known

“Should’ve Known”

By: Steve Everett

 

Verse 1

You’re welcome for all 

All of your stories and friends

I’m sure I’ll see you once you get tired of them

Go get your own life

You’re stealing pieces of mine

And telling friends they took you forever to

 

Pre Chorus

Find your place

Just make sure it isn’t in my way

 

Chorus

You be the sound of leaving

I’ll be the background

So tired of trying to save you over and over again

You’re only imitating what I take time creating 

Don’t like a thought of your own

I should’ve known

 

Verse 2

You’ve got this role down

Know every corner and curve

You write the script so you never need to get hurt

Go get your own mind 

You’re stealing pieces of mine

And telling friends they took you forever to

 

Bridge

You’ve lost your fire

You’ve lost your heat

I took the best thing that you had with me

Once sloppy seconds have lost their shine

You’ll take a number for the next in line
