[Intro]
Da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da
[Verse 1]

How many times have I kicked you out of here
Or said something insulting? (Da-da-da-da)
I can be so mean when I wanna be
I am capable of really anything
I can cut you into pieces
When my heart is broken (Da-da-da-da-da)
[Chorus]

I mean it, I promise
(Da da da da da, yeah)

Oh, please (Da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da), don't leave me (Don't leave me)
Da-da-da-da-da
I always say how I don't need you
But it's always gonna come right back to this
Please (Da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da), don't leave me
[Bridge]
I forgot to say out loud
How beautiful you really are to me
I can't be without
You're my perfect little punching bag
And I need you
I'm sorry (Da-da-da-da-da)
Da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da
[Chorus]

Da-da-da-da-da
Please (Da-da-da-da-da, Da-da-da-da-da), don't leave me (I always say)
Da-da-da-da-da
I always say how I don't need you
But it's always gonna come right back to this
Please (Da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da), don't leave me (Yeah)
Da-da-da-da-da
Please (Da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da), don't leave me (I, I)
Da-da-da-da-da
I always say how I don't need you
But it's always gonna come right back to this (It's gonna come right back to this)
