Wait, what’s that
Did the other shoe drop
I’ve been waitin’ on that sound
Like waiting for the chime on a grandfather clock
The deck was shuffled
Dealt the king and queen
But when I flipped it over
I was just the joker in between
You wrote me off so easy
took just a few days
But how you really felt broke on through
And I was let in on your ways
Who switched the cards
I know it wasn’t me
Played me like a song
A bitter melody
I’ve made mistakes
Been haunted by regret
But this time I was different
Guess you weren’t there yet
I know I’ve changed, been true to my word
A long time comin’, regret my mistakes, but can’t fix the hurt
I thought you’d change, so the benefit of the doubt
Is what I gave you, but in the end, I probably should have stayed out
The second shoe’s the loudest, heavier than the first
The pain hurts the first time, but the second time is worse
The shoe came off easier than I ever thought
But I was always just waitin’ for the other shoe to drop
Tried to give you grace
Like I was beggin’ for mine
You said you regretted it
But was lyin’ every time
I believed in redemption
In love that don’t quit
But I can’t carry both our sins
Now I’m done with it
Fool me once, shame on you
Fool me twice, shame on me
It was just a matter of time
but I was blind, but now I see
I know I’ve changed, been true to my word
A long time comin’, regret my mistakes, but can’t fix the hurt
I thought you’d change, so the benefit of the doubt
Is what I gave you, but in the end, I probably should have stayed out
The second shoe’s the loudest, heavier than the first
The pain hurts the first time, but the second time is worse
The shoe came off easier than I ever thought
But I was always just waitin’ for the other shoe to drop
