lyrics

first things first i apologize
no i never meant to feed you lies
but when you looked at me with those hungry eyes
oh, what was i supposed to do?

we started out in the summer i thought
but i've been wrong before
you said you don't understand
why i didn't walk out the door

and i wish i could feign ignorance
but i know just what i did
you were too good for me
and i just gave you the slip

first things first i apologize
no i never meant to feed you lies
but when you looked at me with those hungry eyes
oh, what was i supposed to do?

you threw me out when the weather got cold
like a dirty pair of gloves
i should've taken the love you gave
but i was lookin' for something else

your eyes burned through me so bright
that i could barely see
and you said i'm an asshole
and i can't make you believe me

first things first i apologize
no i never meant to feed you lies
but when you looked at me with those hungry eyes
oh, what was i supposed to do?
first things first i know i'm wrong
but i didn't mean to lead you on
and when i found out that you weren't the one
i should've told the truth

and i'm not proud of what i did to you
hear me out so i might be forgiven too
give me one more chance to prove i'm sorry
so i can fall asleep knowing that you're alright
