Hypocrite Lyrics by Mercer Henderson
Should’ve known it
Should’ve known it when you said you need somebody
That you’d end up next to someone else’s body
Babe, there’s nothing I haven’t tried, oh-woah
When we talk, we
Really only ever make halfway sense of it
Only ever speak in half-completed sentences
Gotta get you off my mind
But I lie and say it’s fine, so
Go kiss some other people and wake up in their beds
Go on and do the things I’ve done over and over again
I’m still here broken-hearted, but I can’t be upset
You played it cool when it was me, now I’m a hypocrite
Call it closure
Call it off, call her up, or call ’em over
Watch how good I get at havin’ self-composure
Like I don’t even have to try, I don’t try, I’m alright, that’s a lie, ’cause
It took everything I had (Everything I had)
Just to keep it to myself (Keep it to myself)
When I still want you bad and you make it hurt like hell
Go kiss some other people and wake up in their beds
Go on and do the things I’ve done over and over again
I’m still here broken-hearted, but I can’t be upset
You played it cool when it was me, now I’m a hypocrite
Did it feel like this when I hurt you too?
Make you jealous, leave your ego bruised
Did it work in the way that I wanted it too?
‘Cause I’ve done it all, now you’re doin’ it too
Are you still attached, are you moving on?
Will you tell me, is this what you want?
Say you’re going out just to waste some time
If you’re going out ’cause I’m on your mind then
Go kiss some other people and wake up in their beds
Go on and do the things I’ve done over and over again
I’m still here broken-hearted, but I can’t be upset
You played it cool when it was me, now I’m a hypocrite
