"i should just leave" lyrics

You said that I could trust you
When you knew how hard it was for me to love
But you said that I could love you
Guess I didn't know it wouldn't be enough

Kept reaching your ego just to show myself
I could climb, but it hurt this time
You swore you would fix me, you told me that I
Would be fine, now you're the reason I cry

Maybe I should just leave California
Let you and all your friends talk about me
I'll go back to New York so I can mourn us
'Cause I want nothing more than to just leave

I know that I'm foolish
For missing every flag you painted red
And I get that I'm stupid
For letting you make me feel like a mess

Guess everyone fell for the lies that you told
About me, you're so fucking mean
Driving me away to keep that broken slate of yours clean
I guess I agree

Maybe I should just leave California
Let you and all your friends talk about me
I'll go back to New York so I can mourn us
'Cause I want nothing more than to just leave
Maybe I should let you have the suburbs
And I'll pay for a cheap rent studio
All that LA showed me is that love hurts
So I'll do what I can to let go
