How It Is

You know how it makes me feel (makes me feel)
Oh, I thought it was all for real
You told me to never let you go (oh, no)
But now I know I'm better off alone

You know how messed up I was (I was beyond)
Feeling overwhelmed, I never even thought
That you would let me down like this
But let me tell you, babe
How it is

You lied to me
Why'd you gone away?
You lied to me
Oh, babe, I needed you to stay

I thought you were right for me
But somehow I just couldn't see
That I wasn't the only one for you
Baby, now I feel like a fool

You just don't seem to care
And now I think how you acting fair
I guess I always knew
Finally, I can get over you

You lied to me (you lied to me)
Why'd you gone away? (Why'd you gone away, baby?)
You lied to me (you lied to me)
Oh, babe, I needed you to stay (I need, I needed you to stay)

You lied to me
Why'd you gone away?
You lied to me (you lied to me)
Oh, babe, I needed you to stay
You lied to me
You lied to me
