Melanie Martinez
Rough Love (2013)
[Verse 1]
Pulling teeth straight out of my mouth reeks
Of insecurities you poured into me
If these walls talked they'd tell you to stop
Stop with the murdering of my dignity

[Chorus]
All the other boys wanted was
To gaze in my eyes
And all your sick little brain craved was
To see me cry
Not this time

[Verse 2]
Look at me, what have I become?
I'm just a toy you played and destroyed
And what is love? Does it push and shove?
And does it haunt you? Make you feel like a fool?

[Chorus]
All the other boys left me 'cause
I wasn't good enough
Now I'm stuck with these nightmares of me
Accepting rough love
Not this time (Not this time)
Not this time (Not this time)
Not this time (Not this time)
Not this time
[Bridge]
Every tear that falls from me
Is the last one you will see
Tell myself this all the time (Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah-ah-ah)
I don't know what changes my mind

[Chorus]
All the other boys wanted was
To gaze in my eyes
And all your sick little brain craved was
To see me cry
Not this time (Not this time)
Not this time, no
Not this time (Not this time)
Not this time
All the other boys left me 'cause
I wasn't good enough
Now I'm stuck with these nightmares of me
Accepting rough love
