[Verse 1]
I wonder if I took these scars and poured dirt in 'em
Would I grow me a brand new heart? Would love work again?
If I keep letting you hurt me, I might have to plead insanity
'Cause everything in me is telling me to go

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I can't keep on crying when I see ya
Messing up my makeup
Thinking you gon' change, but everything's the same
Started keeping secrets, got my heart in pieces
I'm about to pick myself up, yup

[Chorus]
You gon' wake up in the morn (Yup)
And find out that I'm already gone
Got a one way ticket, here's your goodbye song
And while you're trying to explain I'll be zipping up my suitcase
You gon' wake up in the morn (Yup)
And find out that I'm already gone
Got a one way ticket, here's your goodbye song
And while you're trying to explain
I'll be zipping up my suitcase (Yeah)
(Zipping up, zipping up, zip—, zip—, zipping up)
While you're trying to explain I'll be zipping up my suitcase
(Zipping up, zipping up, zip—, zip—, zipping up)
While you're trying to explain
I'll be zipping up my suitcase
