  • Neither here nor there
    Wasn't truth or dare
    Didn't look too hard
    'Cause it's rude to stare
    Neither here nor there
    Wasn't truth or dare
    Didn't look too hard
    'Cause it's rude to stare
    Neither here nor there
    Wasn't truth or dare
    Didn't look too hard
    'Cause it's rude to stare
    Neither here nor there
    Wasn't truth or dare
    Didn't look too hard
    'Cause it's rude to stare

    This is the longest goodbye of his life
    It's not what he wants to be
    Tryna be the good guy all his life
    Walking on the thinnest ice
    Hiding in the dimmest lights
    Waiting in the coldest nights
    For something that was never gonna be
    For something that was never gonna be

    He loved you with the wrong side of his heart
    This is how the castle's meant to fall apart
    Broken down again and now the car won't start
    The wrong side of his heart
    The wrong side of his heart
    The wrong side of his heart
    The wrong side of his heart

    Not today, not again
    Not today, I heard him say
    She's the one that got away
    She's the one that got away
    No, not today, not again
    No, not today, I heard him say
    She's the one that got away
    She's the one that got away

    He loved you with the wrong side of his heart
    This is how the castle's meant to fall apart
    Broken down again and now the car won't start
    The wrong side of his heart
    The wrong side of his heart
    The wrong side of his heart
    The wrong side of his heart

    Neither here nor there
    Wasn't truth or dare
    Didn't look too hard
    'Cause it's rude to stare
    Neither here nor there
    Wasn't truth or dare
    The wrong side of his heart
    He loved you with the wrong side of his heart
    This is how the castle's meant to fall apart
    Broken down again and now the car won't start
    The wrong side of his heart
    The wrong side of his heart
