[Verse 1]
We never talked about the stars that much
You always said you don't believe in that stuff
So I kept my visions to myself
Love is a dog from hell
Still, I believe God means well
[Chorus]
But I can't tell Mama that I got dressed up
To not look dressed up, to call you up, oh-oh
All my friends think that I'm in bed at home
Yeah, I'm in bed, but I'm not at home, oh-oh
I hide it all so easily
Tonight, I wonder what my angels think of me
[Post-Chorus]
Mm
[Verse 2]
No one down here on Earth gets to know
'Cause I put my phone on airplane mode
I might pretend that I was sick all weekend
Like I did last week
And they're all suspicious
[Chorus]
But I can't tell Mama that I got dressed up
To not look dressed up, to call you up, oh-oh
All my friends think that I'm in bed at home
Yeah, I'm in bed, but I'm not at home, oh-oh
I hide it all so easily
Tonight, I wonder what my angels think of me
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
Runnin' out of excuses
We're a bad idea, I knew it
In a bed of my own makin'
I ain't been listenin' lately
Runnin' out of excuses
We're a bad idea, I knew it
Oh, runnin' out of excuses
We're a bad idea, I knew it
Heaven knows I keep makin'
All the same mistakes, I hate it
I'm runnin' out of excuses
We're a bad idea, I knew it
Oh, I'm runnin' out of excuses
Runnin' out of excuses
Runnin' out of excuses
We're a bad idea, I knew it
[Outro]
We're a bad idea, I knew it
