[Verse 1]
Felt like I could sleep for days
Got to change my wicked ways, yeah
The only way I can escape
This ever-looming twist of fate, yeah

[Chorus]
Is if you cut me loose
Yeah, cut the abuse
Yeah, cut me loose

[Verse 2]
Left my problems on the shelf
Problems from somebody else
I brought 'em out for you to see
Made them about you and me, yeah
You got my secrets, nothing left
Nothing to get off your chest
So you're gonna make me guess
Guess 'til there's just nothing left, yeah

[Chorus]
You gotta cut me loose
Yeah, cut the abuse
Yeah, cut me loose
[Verse 3]
Yeah, I'm sold that things won't go my way
I'm not sold, yeah, don't buy what they say
Yeah, I'm sold that nobody's safe
Guess it's my turn, just promise me, promise me

[Chorus]
That you'll cut me loose
Yeah, cut the abuse
Yeah, cut me loose
Yeah, cut the abuse, yeah

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
You gotta cut me loose (Yeah, things won't go my way)
Cut me loose (Don't buy what they say)
Yeah, cut the abuse (There ain't nobody safe)
Yeah, cut me loose
