In a second floor apartment
The heat does rise
It's a sensory bombardment
Sweat and tears in your eyes

Well, isn’t this what everybody does
Go out on their own
I was the one who wanted more
Now I'm just sitting at home

And I know that I'm not ever gonna get you back
Let me tell you that I'm sorry 'cause I owe you that

Well, I walk around in autumn
And tell myself it's new
But it doesn't feel that honest
With no one to report to
But I'm standing on my own now
Isn't that what everybody wants
I'm not a liberated woman
Just a country bumpkin dilettante

But I know that I'm not ever gonna get you back
Let me tell you I regret it 'cause I owe you that

I carry around this pain I live with all the mistakes I made
I carry around this pain knowing you don't care that I went away
I carry around this pain wonder what you’re doing every day

Happiness comes from within that’s what everybody says
Maybe learning that I have none in me was the point of all of this

I know that I'm not ever gonna get you back
Let me tell you that I'm sorry 'cause I owe you that
You’re the blood in my veins and the bone in my back
And I know that I'm not ever gonna get you back
