I'll Get Me Back

© annie 2006

1.)
I hit the point
of no return
Of a dead end deal
that left me burnt
You bled me dry
Of all my pride
but I'm finally off
This hell-bound ride
I'll find the gal
I used to be
So goodbye hate
And misery
I don't love you
I don't love me
Gotta reclaim
my dignity

Chorus)
I'll get Me back
I'll get Me back
My self-esteem
My self-control
My heart's intact
Just a little sore
I'll get Me back
I'm out the door

2.)
My bank account
Was the charm
But I was deaf
Heard no alarm
Cuz your approach
Was, oh so sweet
Too late I saw through
Your deceit
Now I'm broke
Or badly bent
Need it back
Gotta pay the rent
I'll get a job
Find someone new
be livin the life
But not with you

Chorus)
I'll get Me back
I'll get Me back
My self-esteem
My self-control
My heart's intact
Just a little sore
I'll get Me back
I'm out the door

3.)
I wonder who your
New fool will be
Will she catch on
Faster than me?
The welfare line
Ain't my plan
Never was
When this began
Take the house
Take the rest
Won't have them long
They'll be repossessed
go live in a tent
dont care what you do,
I’ll be rollin’ in dough
Not rollin’ with you.


Chorus)
"I'll get me back
I'll get me back
My self-esteem
My self-control
Cuz I don't need you
Anymore
I'll get it back
I'm out the door"

I’m out the door, I’m out the door
