It Ain’t Right Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You boiled me up to my melting point
And your lack of love leaves me paranoid
Oh, oh, and now, how the hell am I supposed to win
When you wear me out and you spread me thin
Oh, oh
[Pre-Chorus]
It’s like you’re only here to help yourself
Or only keep me sweet to build your wealth
Unfortunate for you, my eyes see clear
And then the second it goes wrong
And darling, you’ll be packed up and be gone
[Chorus]
Is it time I just let go?
Cause I can’t do this on my own
Cause it ain’t right, no it ain’t right
And I was never good enough
And it ain’t right, no it ain’t right
And all I ever did was love
And it ain’t right, no it ain’t right
And I was never good enough
And it ain’t right, no it ain’t right
I know I did it all for love
You boiled me up to my melting point
And your lack of love leaves me paranoid
Oh, oh, and now, how the hell am I supposed to win
When you wear me out and you spread me thin
Oh, oh
[Pre-Chorus]
It’s like you’re only here to help yourself
Or only keep me sweet to build your wealth
Unfortunate for you, my eyes see clear
And then the second it goes wrong
And darling, you’ll be packed up and be gone
[Chorus]
Is it time I just let go?
Cause I can’t do this on my own
Cause it ain’t right, no it ain’t right
And I was never good enough
And it ain’t right, no it ain’t right
And all I ever did was love
And it ain’t right, no it ain’t right
And I was never good enough
And it ain’t right, no it ain’t right
I know I did it all for love
[Verse 2]
Started strong without a care
And as time went on you left me bare
Oh, oh, blinded by your faulty truth
It didn’t take me long to see through you
Oh, oh
[Pre-Chorus]
It’s like you’re only here to help yourself
Or only keep me sweet to build your wealth
Unfortunate for you, my eyes see clear
And then the second it goes wrong
And darling you’ll be packed up and be gone
[Chorus]
Is it time I just let go?
Cause I can’t do this on my own
Cause it ain’t right, no it ain’t right
And I was never good enough
And it ain’t right, no it ain’t right
And all I ever did was love
And it ain’t right, no it ain’t right
And I was never good enough
And it ain’t right, no it ain’t right
I know I did it all for love
Started strong without a care
And as time went on you left me bare
Oh, oh, blinded by your faulty truth
It didn’t take me long to see through you
Oh, oh
[Pre-Chorus]
It’s like you’re only here to help yourself
Or only keep me sweet to build your wealth
Unfortunate for you, my eyes see clear
And then the second it goes wrong
And darling you’ll be packed up and be gone
[Chorus]
Is it time I just let go?
Cause I can’t do this on my own
Cause it ain’t right, no it ain’t right
And I was never good enough
And it ain’t right, no it ain’t right
And all I ever did was love
And it ain’t right, no it ain’t right
And I was never good enough
And it ain’t right, no it ain’t right
I know I did it all for love
[Bridge]
I took off too fast
I jumped the gun
I would have finished last
So I, I’m shutting you down
There’s nothing I need
When you’re around
[Chorus]
Is it time I just let go?
Cause I can’t do this on my own
Cause it ain’t right, no it ain’t right
And I was never good enough
And it ain’t right, no it ain’t right
And all I ever did was love
And it ain’t right, no it ain’t right
And I was never good enough
And it ain’t right, no it ain’t right
I know I did it all for love
I took off too fast
I jumped the gun
I would have finished last
So I, I’m shutting you down
There’s nothing I need
When you’re around
[Chorus]
Is it time I just let go?
Cause I can’t do this on my own
Cause it ain’t right, no it ain’t right
And I was never good enough
And it ain’t right, no it ain’t right
And all I ever did was love
And it ain’t right, no it ain’t right
And I was never good enough
And it ain’t right, no it ain’t right
I know I did it all for love
