Took my heart and placed it in a shoal, engraved in hope
You're in that car you said you didn't know in his embraces
So I'll take my house and build it on a stone and I'll let you be
And I'll pray to God with everything I own to never see you
Ngeke, ngek', ngeke, ngek' ngiphind', ngeke, ngek', ngeke, ngeke
Ngeke, ngek', ngeke, ngek' ngiphind', ngeke, ngek', ngeke, ngeke
(I take my heart and face it to everything that's good
Coz I need an escape, I hope I'm not too late
Coz I've been saying I'll change, but I'm done with you for good
Oh I'm so tired of heartbreak)
Let me go, I been praying for you baby, let me go
Somehow you don't know I saw you go
Every touchdown, another city for your soul
Girl let it be, take it down, I don't wanna hear your pleas
Don't you run out of pretty little tears?
When the sun's down you'll be heading for the road so
Ngeke, ngek', ngeke, ngek' ngiphind', ngeke, ngek', ngeke, ngek'
Ngeke, ngek', ngeke, ngek' ngiphind', ngeke, ngek', ngeke
(I take my heart and face it to everything that's good
Coz I need an escape, I hope I'm not too late
Coz I've been saying I'll change, but I'm done with you for good
Oh I'm so tired of heartbreak)
You been calling, winter nights
Said you've fallen, what a lie
Picked your poison, paid your price
Picked your poison, paid the price
