I don't mean to criticize and I can't even tell you why
But every word you say is a lie, lie
I still have a broken heart, the thought of you I fall apart
It's too soon for me to even try, try
I know you know me
Your voice makes me weak

I should call my mama even though it's late
She'll tell me what I don't wanna hear
I should call my best friend for my own sake
She was with me though all of my tears
I shouldn't call you back for my own good
But I never do what I should

Every time I close the door then I forget the time before
You turn around and hurt me even more
What's it gonna take for me to open up my eyes and see
That I just shouldn't love you anymore
But that day hasn't come
The damage is already done

I should call my mama even though it's late
She'll tell me what I don't wanna hear
I should call my best friend for my own sake
She was with me though all of my tears
I shouldn't call you back for my own good
But I never do what I should

I should've learned the last time
I should've learned the time before that
Maybe I'll learn this time
But it's too late for that

I should call my mama even though it's late
She'll tell me what I don't wanna hear
I should call my best friend for my own sake
She was with me though all of my tears
I shouldn't call you back for my own good
But I never do what I, never do what I should
Oh, never

I don't mean to criticize and I can't even tell you why
