You were my savior, you were my world
You were the big man and I was your girl
And hen it all crumbled, I was sure I'd be lost
But I'd always known my way, I guess I forgot

So don't say that you love me or (love me)
Tell me you care (you care)
Be there to hold me (to hold)
No, I don't need none of that, no
'Cause I belong to me before I ever belong to you

Why'd you keep calling?
This morning, three times
I shouldn't pick up
I guess I'm too nice
It's clear that you need me
More than I need you, ah
So why can't you see, baby?
I'm not yours to lose

So don't say that you love me or (love me)
Tell me you care (you care)
Be there to hold me (to hold)
No, I don't need none of that, no
'Cause I belong to me before I ever belong to you

Oh, look at us now
I guess you don't know what you got 'til it's gone
Boy, it's over
It's too late to come around, oh
And it's too late, it's always way too hard to get through this
And now you wanna come on some new shit like, "who's this?"
Baby, that's some bullshit, yeah
I'm better off on own
And you can do what you want but you can't

Say that you love me, or
Tell me you care
Be there to hold me
No, I don't need none of that
'Cause I belong to me before I ever belong to you
Yeah, I belong to me before I ever belong to you
