I thought I told you, he'd be home soon
Can't help myself, you're too good to be true! 
I fall short each time, 
Every time he ain't here 
You and your junk creep closer in here, 
Like a fool for fire I fall 
With my pride and all! 
Like a bomb before explosion, 
Ticking by your call, 
You're the wiser one, disguised from greed, 
And I'm just a child who longs on her knees. 

But I found a boy who I love more, 
Than I ever did you before, 
So stand beside the river I cried, 
And let yourself down! 
Look how you want me now that I don't need you! 

So, you thought that I crumble to my knees 
At the first I'd love you, crawling back to me 
To whisper "will you leave your man?" 
You sweared that this time you can stand by me. 
I won't stand by you! 

Cause I found a boy who I love more, 
Than I ever did you before, 
So stand beside the river I cried 
And let yourself down! 
Look how you want me now that I don't need you! 

I ain't yours for no taking, 
You must be mistaken 
I could never look into your eyes, and settle for wrong 
And ignore the right 

Well I found a boy who loves me more, 
Than you ever did before. 
So stand beside the river you cried 
And let yourself down! 
Look how you want me now that I don't need you!
