[Verse 1: Shamari]
I feel like the walls are closing on me
I feel like I'm suffocating
I'm sitting here hoping you will call
But I really shouldn't talk to you at all
Sitting here thinkin' bout your lips
I'm sitting here thinkin' bout your kiss
I'm sitting here wondering who you with
Why can't I just move on from this?

[Chorus]
Why can't love have an on and off switch?
Why does love have to be a bitch?
Why can't I just cut you off?
When I know you did me wrong
You're like a plug to my life machine
Without you my heart stops beating
Why can't I just cut you off?
Baby I can't cut you off

[Verse 2: Shamari]
It seems like there is nothing wrong with me
But the wound that you made is so deep
I try to patch it up with only strings
I might fall apart if you don't fix me
How did you get this power over me?
How did you get control of my feelings?
Now I think I finally know what it means
To say without you I can breathe
[Chorus]
Why can't love have an on and off switch?
Why does love have to be a bitch?
Why can't I just cut you off?
When I know you did me wrong
You're like a plug to my life machine
Without you my heart stops beating
Why can't I just cut you off?
Baby I can't cut you off

[Bridge]
Boy I'm looking for an off switch
I'm looking for instructions to tell me where I could find it
Somebody walk me to the door
Put me out and tell me I can't come back in here no more
I wanna tell you that I don't want this
But when I try to call the numbers get out of focus
Why can't I be strong?
Why can't I move on?
Why can't I refuse to love you?

[Chorus]
Why can't love have an on and off switch?
Why does love have to be a bitch?
Why can't I just cut you off?
When I know you did me wrong
You're like a plug to my life machine
Without you my heart stops beating
Why can't I just cut you off?
Baby I can't cut you off
[Chorus]
Why can't love have an on and off switch?
Why does love have to be a bitch?
Why can't I just cut you off?
When I know you did me wrong
You're like a plug to my life machine
Without you my heart stops beating
Why can't I just cut you off?
Baby I can't cut you off
