[Verse 1]

Oh, dark day

Was I just someone to dominate?

Worthy opponent, flint to my blade, now we're playing with shadows

At the Sunset Tower, you said, "Open your mouth"

I did


[Pre-Chorus]

And what came spillin' out that day was the truth

If I'd had virginity, I would have given that too


[Chorus]

Why do we run to the ones we do?

I don't belong to anyone, ooh


[Verse 2]

Oh, dark day

Was I just young blood to get on tape?

'Cause you dimed me out when it got hard

Uppercut to the throat, I was off guard

Pure heroine mistaken for featherweight


[Pre-Chorus]

But what came spillin' out that day was the truth

And once I could sing again, I swore I'd never lеt

Let myself sing again for you, oh-woah-oh

Oh-woah, ooh-woah-oh

Sing it


[Chorus]

Said, "Why do we run to thе ones we do?"

I don't belong to anyone, ooh

I made you God 'cause it was all

That I knew how to do

But I don't belong to anyone (Ooh)


[Outro]

Am I ever gon' love again?

Am I ever gon' love again?

Am I ever gon' love again? (Ooh)

Am I ever gon' love again? (Am I ever gon' love again?) (Tell it to the rock doves)

Will you ever feel like a friend? (Sing it to the fountain)

Am I ever gon' love again?

Do you understand? (Till you understand)

Tell it to 'em
