Chase Goehring
Jaded
[Verse 1]
Let me take you back a couple years ago
When you first showed up at your boy's front door
Big brown eyes with the beautiful smile
And the first thing you say is, "Can I stay for a while?"
I'm like, "Okay, sure, but not too long
I don't want any of us to feel lead on"
Getting in the things we've got to get away from
But I got a place to stay so I guess you've got one
Time goes on, we became friends
Next thing you know is that I'm calling you my girlfriend
It happened pretty quick and I don't know how
But now you're all I think about, wow
People get involved and the tale takes a turn
'Cause everyone is telling me I'm gonna get burnt
By a girl so pure, it couldn't be true
If only I knew you'd be loving that dude

[Chorus]
I'm jaded
Yeah, you broke my heart and my love is going cold
Girl, I'm jaded
Yeah, I got thick skin when you stabbed me through my soul
I opened up for you so that you could get through
But you walked right by when you found another guy
Now, I'm jaded

[Verse 2]
Now you've been my girl for quite some time
Yeah, we've been through a lot, I've even seen you cry
I always had your back and I thought you had mine
But then I caught you lyin', now I'm the one cryin'
I was on the road doing shows
When I saw the news come through my social media
It's you holdin' hands with the boy
That you told me I would never have to worry about
Oh, you're going out? Well, I'm sorry but I'm not an option
I'm not a second choice and I ain't up for adoption
You either got me or you don't
There is no gray, this is a black and white space
Get it? Got it? Good
I do not deserve to be treated with this kind of disrespect
I gave you everything you ever wanted
Just so you could turn around and stab me in the back
And run away with them calling them your lover
Yeah, whatever

[Chorus]
I'm jaded
Yeah, you broke my heart and my love is going cold
Girl, I'm jaded
Yeah, I got thick skin when you stabbed me through my soul
I opened up for you so that you could get through
But you walked right by when you found another guy
Now, I'm jaded

[Verse 3]
Dang, looking back, we had it pretty good
Minus all the barriers, I thought that we would
Stay together, maybe be forever
Something like an old school love
Baby, I don't mind the weather
But I guess you did, guess I'm wrong
Guess you're the reason that I wrote this song

[Chorus]
I'm jaded
Yeah, you broke my heart and my love is going cold
Girl, I'm jaded
Yeah, I got thick skin when you stabbed me through my soul
I opened up for you so that you could get through
But you walked right by when you found another guy
Now, I'm jaded
Girl, I'm jaded
