I don't wanna be the reason why
And it kills him inside
I don't wanna do this
I feel it in the air as I'm doing my hair
I don't wanna be a murderer
A murderer, no no no
Preparing for another date
As if I'm gonna be out late
And we know it very well
Get it over with
The reason that the sky is blue
He's more than a man and this is more than love
I say I won't be long just hanging with the girls
Every time I walk out the door
Every time I walk out the door
I don't wanna be the reason why
A kiss up on my cheek, he's here reluctantly
But clouds are rolling in because I'm gone again
I don't wanna be the reason why
Anymore, anymore
I can see him dying
Our love, his trust
And I don't wanna hurt him anymore
I see him die a little more inside
And put it to his head
Sorrow in my soul ‘cause it seems that wrong
I see him die a little more inside
I don't wanna hurt him anymore
To know that I am happy with some other guy
And I know that he knows I'm unfaithful
I don't wanna hurt him anymore
And every time I walk out the door
I can see him dying
I don't wanna take away his life
I don't wanna take away his life
I don't wanna be a murderer
I don't wanna take away his life
And it kills him inside
I see him die a little more inside
I don't wanna do this anymore
‘Cause I know that he knows I'm unfaithful
I might as well take a gun
Really loves my company
And I don't wanna do this anymore
To know that I am happy with some other guy
I don't wanna be a murderer
I don't wanna do this anymore
Because we both know where I'm about to go
A lie I didn't have to tell
And to him I just can't be true
