[Verse 1]
I always wind up broken
When I think I fell in love
I've never not regretted
Letting my defenses up
So whenever I see you
I don’t know what to do
I know you'll wind up breaking me apart
If I get close to you
[Chorus]
'Cause if I tell you I want you
And you want to stay friends
I’ll regret opening my mouth
And feel alone again
And if you say you want me
I'll be fine, for a couple months
But you'll leave me when your feelings fade
Like everybody always does
[Verse 2]
If I decide that you're the one
And get down on my knees for you
Put a silver noose around our fingers
And watch our love kill itself too
'cause nothing lasts forever
So why even try
To pretend there's someone perfect
What a perfect lie
[Chorus]
'Cause if I tell you I want you
And you want to stay friends
I'll regret opening my mouth
And feel alone again
And if you say you want me
I’ll be fine, for a couple months
But you’ll leave me when your feelings fade
Like everybody always does
Like everybody always does
