[Verse 1]
Took a red dose to forget you
Thinking I can numb my issues
But it only made me see blue
I can still hear you laughing
All the echoes of the past tense
Love is a ghost in the room
[Pre-Chorus]
I had to let you fall and build a world
I made it tall, but never threw the rope
Never threw the rope
I couldn’t let you see the side of me
The side of me that no one ever knows
No one ever knows
[Chorus]
Me and my ego, we had to let you go
We had to let you know it was all a game
Me and my ego, we had to take control
We had to steal your soul, but I'll take the blame
[Verse 2]
You’re tattoo on my conscience (yeah)
No matter how many times I wash it (ooh)
You’ll always be a stain in my head (my head)
I can still see you leaving (leaving)
Saying I didn’t mean it (mean it)
Now you’re my only regret (eh-eh-eh)
[Pre-Chorus]
I had to let you fall and build a world
I made it tall, but never threw the rope
Never threw the rope
I couldn’t let you see the side of me
The side of me that no one ever knows
No one ever knows
[Chorus]
Me and my ego, we had to let you go
We had to let you know it was all a game
Me and my ego, we had to take control
We had to steal your soul, but I'll take the blame
[Chorus]
Me and my ego, we had to let you go
We had to let you know it was all a game
Me and my ego, we had to take control
We had to steal your soul, but I'll take the blame
Took a red dose to forget you
Thinking I can numb my issues
But it only made me see blue
I can still hear you laughing
All the echoes of the past tense
Love is a ghost in the room
[Pre-Chorus]
I had to let you fall and build a world
I made it tall, but never threw the rope
Never threw the rope
I couldn’t let you see the side of me
The side of me that no one ever knows
No one ever knows
[Chorus]
Me and my ego, we had to let you go
We had to let you know it was all a game
Me and my ego, we had to take control
We had to steal your soul, but I'll take the blame
[Verse 2]
You’re tattoo on my conscience (yeah)
No matter how many times I wash it (ooh)
You’ll always be a stain in my head (my head)

Now you’re my only regret (eh-eh-eh)
[Pre-Chorus]
I had to let you fall and build a world

Never threw the rope
I couldn’t let you see the side of me
The side of me that no one ever knows
No one ever knows
[Chorus]
Me and my ego, we had to let you go
We had to let you know it was all a game
Me and my ego, we had to take control
We had to steal your soul, but I'll take the blame
[Chorus]
Me and my ego, we had to let you go
We had to let you know it was all a game
Me and my ego, we had to take control
We had to steal your soul, but I'll take the blame
