[Intro]
Ooh, call me baby
Ooh, tear me down
[Verse 1]
Tell me how it feels to be on the outside
With your hands on the glass
'Cause we know it's the easiest thing in the world
To be that cynical
[Pre-Chorus: Dan Smith]
I looked up to you (I looked up to you)
Oh, I trusted you (Oh, I trusted you)
I put faith in you (I put faith in you)
Guess that's what you do
Now I'll stare you out as you pass me on the way down
I'll stare you out as you pass me on the way down
[Chorus]
Be the one, be the one, be the one to call me baby (Ooh, call me baby)
Even though you're the one who would always tear me down (Ooh, tear me down)
Be the one, be the one, be the one to call me baby (Ooh, call me baby)
Even though you're the one who would always tear me down (Ooh, tear me down)
[Verse 2]
How don't you get exhausted
Spitting forward so much bile?
Shame that your time is ticking
And you are so replaceable
[Pre-Chorus]
I looked up to you (I looked up to you)
Oh, I trusted you (Oh, I trusted you)
I put faith in you (I put faith in you)
Guess that's what you do
Now I'll stare you out as you pass me on the way down
I'll stare you out as you pass me on the way down, down, down
[Chorus]
Be the one, be the one, be the one to call me baby (Ooh, call me baby)
Even though you're the one who would always tear me down (Ooh, tear me down)
Be the one, be the one, be the one to call me baby (Ooh, call me baby)
Even though you're the one who would always tear me down (Ooh, tear me down)
[Bridge]
'Cause I put faith into you
I put faith into you
Oh, I put faith into you
And I will break a smile when you fall
[Chorus]
Be the one, be the one, be the one to call me baby (Ooh, call me baby)
Even though you're the one who would always tear me down (Ooh, tear me down)
Be the one, be the one, be the one to call me baby (Ooh, call me baby)
Even though you're the one who would always tear me down (Ooh, tear me down)
[Post-Chorus]
Be the one, be the one, be the one to call me baby (Ooh, call me baby)
You tear me down, you tear me down
Even though you're the one who would always tear me down (Ooh, tear me down) Oh-oh
Be the one, be the one, be the one to call me baby (Ooh, call me baby) Call me baby
Even though you're the one who would always tear me down (Ooh, tear me down)
[Outro]
Ooh, call me baby
Ooh, tear me down
