"Overrated" lyrics

"Overrated"

I had to fall in love to be able to leave you
I couldn't be enough, so here I am without you
And I blamed it on your mother
For not loving you harder
The way she was supposed to
I had to fall in love to be able to leave you

And now I'm screaming
Playing back our last fight
Oh, I was hanging
Holding on for dear life

Didn't work
But oh my God, we made it
No more saying
"Could be worse"
I tried my best to save it
Oh, I hate it
But no one ever taught me
Love just leaves you lonely
Have to learn to let 'em go
Now I know
That you were overrated
Overrated

I had to bottle up and hide my feelings from you
I paid a thousand bucks, my therapist still hates you
When you said, "Two months," I waited
I tried talking it out
But suddenly, the voices in my head got too loud
Do you hear me now?

And now I'm screaming
Playing back our last fight
Oh, I was hanging
Holding on for dear life

Didn't work
But oh my God, we made it
No more saying
"Could be worse"
I tried my best to save it
Oh, I hate it
But no one ever taught me
Love just leaves you lonely
Have to learn to let 'em go
Now I know
That you were overrated
Overrated

Baby, you were overrated
Baby, you were overrated

I had to fall in love to be able to leave you
