lyrics

just when i start to come alive
and finally strip you from my mind
you must be picking up my vibe
how the hell'd you know?

i see your name light up my phone
it ties my stomach up like rope
don't read the message that you wrote
cause i don't wanna know

like why you never let me go?
why you wanna bust out my heart of stone?
why you wanna keep me broke?
baby i'm rising up

(way up, i'm way up)
you only come around
(way up, i'm way up)
to try to put me down
(way up, i'm way up)
how come you want me now?
i won't be getting close again
(way up, i'm way up)
and when you set me free
(way up, i'm way up)
i made a better me
(way up, i'm way up)
so baby let it be
i won't be getting close again

don't ever say i didn't try
i would've given you my child
but if it's over let it die
we've got a lot to learn

like why you never let me go?
why you wanna bust out my heart of stone?
why you wanna keep me broke?
baby i'm rising up

(way up, i'm way up)
you only come around
(way up, i'm way up)
to try to put me down
(way up, i'm way up)
how come you want me now?
i won't be getting close again

(way up, i'm way up)
and when you set me free
(way up, i'm way up)
i made a better me
(way up, i'm way up)
so baby let it be
i won't be getting close again

i can't see you up this high
so leave me be, babe, let it die
i can't see you up this high
our love is bleeding, let it die

(way up, i'm way up)
you only come around
(way up, i'm way up)
to try to put me down
(way up, i'm way up)
how come you want me now?
i won't be getting close again

(way up, i'm way up)
and when you set me free
(way up, i'm way up)
i made a better me
(way up, i'm way up)
so baby let it be
i won't be getting close again
