lyrics

[Verse 1]
I wish you wouldn’t try to put it nicely
I wish you had the heart to just destroy me
I wish you wouldn’t avoid my questions, ignore the tension
I wish that you would hurt me so I could learn my lesson

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I wish, I wish, I wish you would hurt me
I wish you would turn ‘round and desert me

[Chorus]
Cut me loose
I swear I want you to
Break the news
I need to hear it come from you
‘Cause I can’t breathe when I see your face again
After all the time I spent erasing it
Have mercy
You know what you got to do

[Post-Chorus]
Cut me, cut me loose
Cut me loose
Cut me, cut me loose
Cut me loose

[Verse 2]
I know you mean well, know I’ve tried to hide it
I know you’re stuck in a hard spot with the way I’ve been lying
I know you’re hoping to spare my feelings, and you have your reasons
But a knife to the heart is quicker than to kill with kindness

[Pre-Chorus 2]
I wish, I wish, I wish you would hurt me
I wish you would quit trying to let me down easy

[Chorus]
Cut me loose
I swear I want you to
Break the news
I need to hear it come from you
‘Cause I can’t breathe when I see your face again
After all the time I spent erasing it
Have mercy
You know what you got to do

[Post-Chorus]
Cut me, cut me loose
Cut me loose
Cut me, cut me loose
Cut me loose

[Bridge]
I want you to hate me
I want you to kick me when I’m down
I want you to watch on as I drown
I want you, want you to
I want you to hate me
If it means I mean something to you
If it means you’ll cut me loose

[Chorus]
Cut me loose
I swear I want you to
Break the news
I need to hear it come from you
‘Cause I can’t breathe when I see your face again
After all the time I spent erasing it
Have mercy
You know what you got to do

[Post-Chorus]
Cut me, cut me loose
Cut me loose
Cut me, cut me loose
Cut me loose

[Post-Chorus]
Cut me, cut me loose
Cut me loose
Cut me, cut me loose
Cut me loose
