Taylor Swift

Oh, here we go again
The voices in his head
Called a ring to end our days of wild
The sickest army doll purchased at the mall
Rivulets to send my plastic smile
But you should've seen it when he first got me
My boy only breaks his favorite toys, toys, oh woah-oh oh
I'm queen of sandcastles he destroys, oh woah-oh oh
Cause it fit too right
Puzzle pieces in the dead of night
Should've know it was a matter of time, oh woah-oh oh
My boy only breaks his favorite toys, oh, oh, oh

There was a litany of reasons why
We could've played for keeps this time
I know I'm just repeating myself
With me back on my shelf
But first pull the string and I'll tell you that he runs because he loves me (he loves me)
'Cause you should've seen it when he first got me
My boy only breaks his favorite toys, toys, oh woah-oh oh
I'm queen of sandcastles he destroys, oh woah-oh oh
'Cause I knew too much
There was danger in the heat of my touch
It's all forever so he smashed it up
My boy only breaks his favorite toys, oh woah-oh oh
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh, once I fix me
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh, he's gonna miss me
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh, once I fix me
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh, he's gonna miss me

Just say when I'll play again
He was my best friend
Down at the sandlot
I felt more when
We played pretend
Than with all the Kens
Cause he took my by box
Stole my tortured heart
Left all these broken parts
And told me I'm better off
But I'm not, I'm not
I'm not
