Like Thorns - Syleena Johnson

I can’t keep holding all this pain I have inside

Your childish insecurities gon make me lose my mind

I should have caught it when I saw the subtle signs

But I was blinded by the charming ways that you disguise

And now I can’t sleep at night

Worried that you’re going through my phone

Knowing you gonna find something wrong!

When it’s just illusions that you’ve created

I won’t live a lie

Thought I was unlucky on my own

Now I curse the day you came along

And I don’t wanna fix this so!

You just need to get out

Because I can’t do this anymore

The things that you do I can’t endure

You used to be like roses

But now you’re just like thorns

I don’t wanna fight with you no more

Cause this ain’t really what I signed up for

You used to be like roses, but now you’re just like thorns!

I tried to love you, but you make it so damn hard

Always accusing me and acting up at my job

Why do you think they gonna catch me in the act?

Or could it be maybe it is you that’s out here bad

And now I can’t sleep at night

Worried that you’re going through my phone

Knowing you gonna find something wrong!

When it’s just illusions you’ve created

I won’t live a life

Thought I was unlucky on my own

Now I curse the day you came along

And I don’t wanna fix it so!

You need to get out

Because I can’t do this anymore

The things that you do I can’t endure

You used to be like roses

But now you’re just like thorns

I don’t wanna fight with you no more

Cause this ain’t really what I signed up for

You used to be like roses, but now you’re just like thorns!

I know you thought that I would never say these words

But you have pushed me to my limits (pushed me to the limit)

I’ve got nothing left to give each other (now you just like thorns)

And it’s a shame that all this time will go to waste

And now my love (been in vain) has been in vain

Because my heart don’t feel (heart don’t beat the same) the same no more!

You need to get out

Because I can’t do this anymore

The things that you do I can’t endure

You used to be like roses

But now you’re just like thorns

I don’t wanna fight with you no more

Cause this ain’t really what I signed up for

Oh, you used to be like roses, but now you’re just like thorns!
