He helped me change a tire in the Citgo parking lot
He said we both could use a beer
And I said "hell why not"
It started out as one night turned to six months just like that
He never had a ring on, so I never thought to ask
Then last night I saw a message on his phone
It said "hey babe, what time you comin home?"
I never wanted to be that girl
I never wanted to hate myself
I thought this kind of lonely only happens to somebody else
Bein' the other one, when there's another one
God this feels like hell
I thought I knew who I was but it's getting hard to tell
I never wanted to be that girl
I've heard about those women who didn't have a clue
The ones who made excuses, like my mama used to do
And he jumps in the shower just as soon as he gets home
And I spend half an hour going through his phone
I never wanted to be that girl
I never wanted to hate myself
I thought this kind of lonely only happens to somebody else
And being the other one when there's another one
God this feels like hell
I thought I knew who I was but it's getting harder to tell
I never wanted to be that girl
Oh and I feel stupid
I feel cheap
And I feel used
I feel weak
I never wanted to be that girl
I never wanted to hate myself
I thought this kind of lonely only happens to somebody else
And being the other one when there's another one
God this feels like hell
I thought I knew who I was but it's getting hard to tell
I never wanted to be that girl (I never wanted to be that girl)
I never wanted to be that girl
