Detour

Remember when you said you would love me?
Remember when you said that you would care?
Well now it's really clear you weren't about me
Come to find out my love was rare

I always thought that you would be the one to change the story
It was always me and you until the end of time
Now I really know what love means
The love you claimed for me, it was a crime

Sit back, think about it
Who loved you more than me
Shining stars, expensive cars
Money's all you see
You never miss your water til' (Your well runs dry)
Now there's no tears left to cry

So I took the detour
So done with you cuz' I'm worth more
I've been through this love game before
You thought we were meant to be
But I need you to see
I can't take you no more
So I'll take the detour

Now you come to me with all these feelings
Talkin' bout' how you can make it right
I guess it goes to really show who's really healing
But when it comes to me your future isn't bright

New life, who is this?
No entry guaranteed
I'm not coming back
I know what's best for me
What goes around comes back around
At least we both tried
So this is my final goodbye

So I took the detour
So done with you cuz' I'm worth more
I've been through this love game before
You thought we were meant to be
But I need you to see
I can't take you no more
So I'll take the detour

Who's gon' love you more than me?
It's so clear can't you see?
After what you did to me
I'm coming back for everything you took from me
Gave you my all
Picked up every call
Several bank withdrawals
But you still let me fall
Why'd you have to do this shit to me?
I'm glad you did cuz' I've been set free

So I took the detour
So done with you cuz' I'm worth more
I've been through this love game before
You thought we were meant to be
But I need you to see
I can't take you no more
So I'll take the detour
