the sting

don't know why i though you'd save the day

cause if anything

you were always meant to walk away

away

and i don't know what we're fighting for

cause it's not what i want anymore

don't know why i thought you'd save the day

the day

but i never loved you anyway

i just wanted who you promised you could be

i wanna feel the sting

of the real thing

'stead of the false alarm

when i was in your arms

but when you left last night

i did my best to cry

but i never felt that sting

still waiting on the real thing

baby you don't owe a thing to me

anymore

now i gotta reason to believe

and waiting for

a trust that never needs a ring

someone who tells me everything

but honey you could never be that for me

for me

cause you never loved me anyway

you just wanted who you got to be with me

but now i wanna feel the sting

of the real thing

'stead of the false alarm

when i was in your arms

but when you left last night

i did my best to cry

but i never felt that sting

still waiting on the real thing

i thought it was more than what it was

you swore we would never come undone

i'll wait a life time if forever's what it takes for something

real

still waiting to feel that sting

of the real thing

'stead of the false alarm

when i was in your arms

but when you left last night

i did my best to cry

but i never felt that sting

still waiting on the real thing

still waiting on the real thing

i'm waiting

still waiting

i'm waiting

still waiting

waiting on the real thing.
