The Last Time


Artist: MissJune
Key Signature: C major
Time Signature: 4/4
Artist's Description
This song is about realizing too late that a relationship was manipulative and damaging — and the painful self-blame that follows.

The narrator looks back on a time when she let herself be controlled (“a puppet on your strings”), knowing deep down that something was wrong but staying anyway. She’s grieving not only what happened, but also her own silence — the “words I didn’t say” and the moment she should’ve walked away.

It’s less about the abuser and more about reclaiming self-awareness after emotional manipulation: understanding that the real mistake wasn’t loving someone, but not leaving sooner.
The bridge (“I don’t care if I never forgive you / I’m just scared I’ll never forgive myself”) shows that her struggle now is with self-forgiveness and healing.

Overall, it’s a raw, confessional breakup song about breaking free from control and learning to stop carrying the guilt for someone else’s harm.

[Intro]

[Verse]
I remember it all so clearly
The way I let you hold me,
when you were the one who hurt me

I think somewhere deep down I knew it;
that you knew damn well what you did
I just didn't wanna believe it
believe it..

[Chorus]
And now I'm crying in the middle of the night
Losing sleep over what I never did
All the words I didn't say
How I should have walked away
the first time
should have been the last time!
I was just a puppet on your strings
You moved my hands, my heart, my voice
Left me thinking I made all the wrong choices...
When the only wrong choice was that the first time
Should have been the last time

[Verse]
I feel so stupid thinking no else could ever love me
For believing all that time that you were above me
How could I have been so blind?

I wonder why I thought I couldn't be without you
When I lost everything that was good about me
Just to fit into your broken existence

[Chorus]
And now I'm crying in the middle of the night
Losing sleep over what I never did
All the words I didn't say
How I should have walked away
the first time
should have been the last time!
I was just a puppet on your strings
You moved my hands, my heart, my voice
Left me thinking I made all the wrong choices
When the only wrong choice was
that the first time, should have been the last time

[Bridge]
I don't care if I never forgive you
I'm just scared I'll never forgive myself

[Chorus]
And now I'm crying in the middle of the night
Losing sleep over what I never did
All the words I didn't say
How I should have walked away
the first time
should have been the last time!
I was just a puppet on your strings
You moved my hands, my heart, my voice
Left me thinking I made all the wrong choices
When the only wrong choice was that the first time, should have been the last time

It should have been the last time
