[Verse 1]
How many times will I take this rollercoaster ride?
Make myself sick before I realize I can just step off
And how many nights will I keep driving on an empty tank?
Every mile I go, a little more insane, when I can make it stop
When I love you rolls right off your tongue
I forget your mouth's a loaded gun
[Chorus]
Yeah, baby you're the reason I'm crazy
And lately you're the reason I cry
Yeah, you're the only reason I hate me
And love you at the same damn time
Oh, how do you keep me so hopeless
And somehow believing you'll change
'Cause you're the only reason I ever wanna leave
And baby, you're the reason I stay
[Verse 2]
When you're good at self-harm and holding you is like I lassoed the sun
But then you drop me down when I ain't got a parachute
Falling from the cloud that you just sent me to
[Chorus]
Maybe that's the reason I'm crazy
And lately you're the reason I cry
Yeah, you're the only reason I hate me
And love you at the same damn time
Oh, how do you keep me so hopeless
And somehow believing you'll change
'Cause you're the only reason I ever wanna leave
And baby, you're the reason I stay
[Bridge]
Oh, I wanna walk away
But I can't walk away
[Chorus]
And baby that's the reason I'm crazy, mhh
Baby, that's the reason I hate me
For loving you all the damn time
Oh, how do you keep me so hopeless
And somehow believing you'll change
'Cause you're the only reason I ever wanna leave
And baby, you're the reason I stay
