  • Where are you now?
    And I've been checking out
    All the places that you might be at
    Well this is my town
    Word gets around
    And I don't think you have a hideout

    This life's a tune
    We know the moves
    But you've been working with two left feet so
    What are you waiting for?
    Who knows anymore?
    I think your best days have come and gone

    I swear
    I don't really wanna talk it out
    This life is a battle ground
    Who really wants to hear the sound
    That comes out of your mouth?

    Every now and then
    You show up again
    Talking of how all is forgiven
    Well mines a Jameson
    And I'll be patient
    Blocking out all that you're saying

    Are you friend or foe?
    'Cause I, I've gotta know

    I swear
    I don't really wanna talk it out
    This life is a battle ground
    Who really wants to hear the sound
    That comes

    And I swear
    I don't really wanna talk it out
    This life is a battle ground
    Who really wants to hear the sound
    That comes out of your mouth?

    I swear
    I don't really wanna talk it out
    This life is a battle ground
    Who really wants to hear the sound
    That comes

    And I swear, swear, swear
    You don't own me
    Swear, swear, swear
    You don't own me Writer/s: Christopher Miller, Daniel Flint, Josh Franceschi, Matthew Barnes, Max Helyer
