  • Sick of you playing on the Xbox thing
    You're never gonna get me with the diamond ring
    Look at you so confused
    No you don't have a clue
    I bet you think you got me good

    So tell me when's the last time you changed that shirt?
    Instead of sitting here you should be going to work
    Like I do for you, your down and it's not cool
    Time for me to move on
    Nothing I could do so

    Leave, you are not the boy you said you'd be
    And it's so hard for me to breathe
    How can I love you boy if you're going nowhere
    We're going nowhere

    Bye, don't have the strength to see you cry
    I'm tired of asking myself why
    How can I love you boy if you're going nowhere
    We're going nowhere

    How am I supposed to look at you like that?
    When all you ever really do is hold me back
    No more for sure
    It's you who's out the door
    I think I should press delete and clear my history

    I got my ambitions, yes I dream so big
    While I'm ticking boxes you'll be counting sheep
    So you, do you and I'll be me
    Time for me to move on
    Nothing left to see so

    Leave, you are not the boy you said you'd be
    And it's so hard for me to breath (it's so hard)
    How can I love you boy if you're going nowhere
    We're going nowhere

    Bye, don't have the strength to see you cry (I don't wanna see you cry)
    I'm tired of asking myself why
    How can I love you boy if you're going nowhere
    We're going nowhere

    I'm sick of dragging you up
    All you do is pull me down
    I wish you good luck as from now I ain't around
    See, I can recollect every other rain fall
    But I stayed here, unchanged, that's my only downfall (oh)
    Little boy boy pull your trousers up, alright bruv
    I deserve some respect (yeah)
    Are you a man or a mouse?
    You don't provide or protect
    Stay stuck in the mud, I'll be on to the next

    Leave, you are not the boy you said you'd be
    And it's so hard for me to breathe
    How can I love you boy if you're going nowhere
    We're going nowhere

    Bye, don't have the strength to see you cry
    I'm tired of asking myself why
    How can I love you boy if you're going nowhere
    We're going nowhere

    Bye (yeah) cry
    I'm sick and tired of asking why
    Why, you're going nowhere
    We're going nowhere Writer/s: FRED BALL, FREDERIK BALL, IAIN JAMES, JADE THIRLWALL, JESY NELSON, LEIGH-ANNE PINNOCK, NICOLA ROBERTS, PERRIE EDWARDS
