(What would it profit a man to gain this world)
(But lose his soul?)
Thought I was just paranoid and jealous
But hell, my heart couldn't help it
Went through your phone, your camera roll
Sold you out, baby
You told me not to worry
Said he's just a friend from work
You were so close
You almost were the one that got away
With leaving your lipstick on his pillowcase
Running 'round downtown, lying straight to my face
Clearing your texts just to cover your tracks
Every lie that you told was a knife in my back
It took some time to see the silver lining
But now that it's behind me, I can finally say
Thank God that you're the one that got away
(What would it profit a man to gain this world)
Looks like I dodged a bitch, dodged a bullet
Your gaslight ran out of fluid
You were so close
Yeah, you almost were the one that got away
With leaving your lipstick on his pillowcase
Running 'round downtown, lying straight to my face
Clearing your texts just to cover your tracks
Every lie that you told was a knife in my back
It took some time to see the silver lining
But now that it's behind me, I can finally say
Thank God that you're the one that got away
What happened to the girl I knew?
I trusted you, what did I do to make you do
The things you did with him up in that motel room?
I barely slept in thirty nights
Just thinking 'bout how good you lie
So close, you were almost the one that got away
With leaving your lipstick on his pillowcase
Running 'round downtown, lying straight to my face
Clearing your texts just to cover your tracks
Every lie that you told was a knife in my back
It took some time to see the silver lining
But now that it's behind me, I can finally say
Thank God that you're the one that got away
(What would it profit a man- profit a man- profit a man-)
(What would it-)
