Lyrics
Find another songO, dark day
Was I just someone to dominate?
Worthy opponent, flint to my blade, now we're playing with shadows
At the Sunset Tower, you said, "Open your mouth"
I did
And what came spilling out that day was the truth
If I'd had virginity, I would have given that too
Why do we run to the ones we do?
I don't belong to anyone, ooh
O, dark day
Was I just young blood to get on tape?
'Cause you dimed me out when it got hard
Uppercut to the throat, I was off-guard
Pure heroine mistaken for featherweight
But what came spilling out that day was the truth
And once I could sing again, I swore I'd never let
Let myself sing again for you
Oh-whoa-oh
Oh-ah-ooh-whoa-oh
Singing
Said, why do we run to the ones we do?
I don't belong to anyone, ooh
I made you God 'cause it was all that I knew how to do
But I don't belong to anyone
Ooh-ooh-hoo
Am I ever gon' love again?
Am I ever gon' love again?
Am I ever gon' love again?
Am I ever gon' love again?
Tell it to the rock doves
Will you ever feel like a friend?
Sing it to the fountain
Am I ever gon' love again?
Till you understand
Tell it to 'em
