Verse
Could you've been happier
at the fact that you broke her
gone off and crushed her whole dream
you made her feel like you were the one
believed that her life had begun
she never thought youd be the one to leave
Chorus
as bright as you are
you'll never go far, playing all these games
looking around, isnt going around
and making girls feel ashamed
calling her things and making her feel
like all these words towards her appeal
but your the one to blame
Verse
you might think it will be alright
she'll come running to you tonight
because its happened times before
but when will you realize
shes not coming back anymore
Chorus
as bright as you are
you'll never go far, playing all these games
looking around, isnt going around
and making girls feel ashamed
calling her things and making her feel
like all these words towards her appeal
but your the one to blame
Bridge
when you look back ages from now
you'll ask yourself how
someone so loving could be so mean
why'd you have to be so mean..?
Chorus
As bright as you are
you didnt get far, playing all those games
looking around, wasnt going around
while you made girls feel ashamed
you called her things and made her feel
like all those words towards her appealed
but you were the one to blame
you were the one to blame
you are the one to blame
