I’ve come too far to let you take this from me
And now I know it’s for the best, it wasn’t meant to be
You can talk behind my back if that’s what gets you by
It’s not hard to see the truth if you read between the lines
My patience has been slipping as our friendship fades away
And you will hear me say, “Take what’s yours, but keep it far from me”
I’ve learned from my mistakes
Wanted to see how far my dream would take me
While you manipulate your friends and think no one can see
Heart will win over pride, how can you be so blind?
It’s not hard to see the truth: it was such a waste of time
My patience has been slipping as our friendship fades away
And you will hear me say, “Take what’s yours, but keep it far from me”
I’ve learned from my mistakes: People never change, people never change
You ran from all your problems, and you can’t deny
You’ve ruined everything with all your lies
You almost broke me down, but I’m smarter now than I ever was before
You can play your game, but you don’t fool me anymore
You don’t fool me anymore
I’ve come too far to let you take this from me
And now I know it’s for the best, it wasn’t meant to be
You can talk behind my back if that’s what gets you by
It’s not hard to see the truth if you read between the lines
My patience has been slipping as our friendship fades away
And you will hear me say, “Take what’s yours, but keep it far from me”
I’ve learned from my mistakes: People never change, people never change

Gutsy rock & roll from this Brooklyn group bursting with hot-rodding riffs and snarling vocals, hearkening back to classic dark punk. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 24, 2023
Taking cues from Midwestern emo and early ’10 pop punk, this Leeds, UK outfit are full of heart— not to mention hooks. Bandcamp New & Notable Sep 21, 2022
