Melissa McClelland - Jaded Lyrics

These things I say
Come spinning out of my mouth
Like they've lost their way
And there's no doubt about it
You heard me,
I shouted,
I think you'd prefered it
That whenever you come clean
I say nothing at all

So what?
You'd left
Before I had a single chance to second-guess
These bittersweet diversions
And late night excursions
Secret perversions
Well, maybe I'm naïve,
'Cause I can't believe this

And now you fill my heart with doubt
You've turned me inside out
But I'm not jaded
And still, with all this overkill
And bitterness instilled
My heart's left unfulfilled
But I'm not jaded

My life
Complete
With minor twists and turns
And just a small defeat
You know you really got me
You burned me
You shocked me
You threw me
You lost me
Well, maybe I'm naïve
But I'm catching on fast

And how could I have been so proud?
You've turned me inside out
But I'm not jaded
And still, with all this overkill
And bitterness instilled
My heart's left unfulfilled
But I'm not jaded

You came around
Your hands did all the talking
As you sat me down
For a bittersweet reminder
You heard me
I shouted
I'd never allow it
'Cause maybe I'm naïve
But I'm not fucking stupid

And still, with all this overkill
And bitterness instilled
My heart's left unfulfilled
But I'm not jaded
