I still remember how it was to start Held my hand so tender, couldn't bear to be apart Now it all seems faded, it all slipped away Now we're left with nothing and there's nothing left to say Cut the cord, I told you so Tell me what you want to know Count to three, turn around I won't be what you thought you found And you won't bring this up again Not after where you've been I told you so, I told you so I told you so I seem to have misplaced my faith and you forgot to call We pack our parachutes, ready for the fall He's waiting for me in the back, I can taste the guilt Don't pretend to miss me as we tear down what we built So cut the cord, I told you so Tell me what you want to know Count to three, turn around I won't be what you thought you found And you won't bring this up again Not after where you've been I told you so, I told you so I told you so And we both know where this is gonna go So let's not pretend that he's just a friend You don't know how to give But I know what to take It's your fault, but it's my mistake So cut the cord, I told you so Tell me what you want to know Count to three, turn around I won't be what you thought you found Cut the cord, I told you so Tell me what you want to know Count to three, turn around I won't be what you thought you found And you won't bring this up again, yeah I told you so, I told you so I told you so
