[Chorus]
I wish you knew I'm not the one for you
You're not the one for me, and I can't stand it
After all I put you through, you're still just stuck like glue
Why don't you run from me, 'cause I can't leave you
Before I break your heart, release me

[Verse 1]
Oh, mine is such a sorry state, I gave my heart away
When I could love with grit and guts and reckless unrestraint
Those were the days

[Chorus]
I wish you knew I'm not the one for you
You're not the one for me, and I can't stand it
After all I put you through, you're still just stuck like glue
Why don't you run from me, 'cause I can't leave you
Before I break your heart
Release me

[Verse 2]
Oh you're a boy that I could love, and all I do is run
And still I keep you hoping someday soon our day will come
And it never does

[Chorus]
I wish you knew I'm not the one for you
I'm just a sad excuse for what you long for
And after all I do, you're still just stuck like glue
Why don't you run from me, 'cause I can't leave you
Before I break your heart, release me
[Bridge]
Nothing ever changes, people never change
So passion turns to sheer compulsion
And love, it turns to hate

[Chorus]
I wish you knew I'm not the one for you
You're not the one for me, and I can't stand you
After all you put me through, I'm still just stuck like glue
Why don't you run from me, 'cause I can't leave you
Before I break your heart
Before it breaks my heart
Before you break my heart
Release me
Release me
Release me
Release me
