Rewrite of Cheap Trick's The Flame

Another sad realization slowly closes in

And I know I can't go on

Feeling so lonely

Loving you has become 

My greatest sin

Growing sick of so tight you holding me

I'm done going crazy

No more losing sleep

Now you've gone too far

Can't believe I ever fell for a creep like you

Now I'm putting me first

You last

Chorus

Wherever you go

I'm not gonna be there anymore

Whatever you want

I'll no longer give it to you

Whenever you wanna point that finger at someone

To lay all that fault and hurt upon

Remember I was't the liar

I never left you

Alone in the rain

So I'll no more take the blame

I'll no more take the blame

Watching you put up another wall

Feels so digusting

No I won't run to you

I'm not gonna call

Never again falling

For your game playing

To you I finally gotta stand up

No more fallin' apart

At last I've seen thru your spell

Wicked cast over my heart

No more are you my one

From now on I'm first

You're last

Chorus

I'm done going crazy

No more losing sleep

Now you've gone too far

Can't believe I ever fell for a creep like you

Now I'm putting me first

You last

Whatever you want

I can't give anymore to you

Wherever you go I won't be with you

And whatever you want

Forget it

I won't give it to you

No, whatever you want

I'll never again give it to you
