[Verse 1]
I've been holding on to something evil
Devil's in the details, in my mistakes
Got no excuses, don't wanna lose you
[Verse 2]
I keep searching your face for affection
I'm second guessing your every move
What happens next is up to you
[Pre-Chorus]
The truth strikes a match and our house is on fire
You don't know if it's worth saving
[Chorus]
You always catch my weakest moments
Break me down like only you know how (Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha)
What the hell do we do now? (Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha)
Broke your heart, I didn't mean it
Wish it didn't drag us so far down (Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha)
What the hell do we do now? (Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha)
Maybe I'll see you around
[Verse 3]
Running out of breath from saying sorry
Wishing you would call me, I need to know
If you still want me, or do you regret me?
[Pre-Chorus]
The truth strikes like midnight, I can't change your mind
I'm hoping that you might let me
[Chorus]
You always catch my weakest moments
Break me down like only you know how (Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha)
What the hell do we do now? (Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha)
Ooh, broke your heart, I didn't mean it
Wish it didn't drag us so far down (Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha)
What the hell do we do now? (Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha)
Maybe I'll see you around
[Post-Chorus]
(Oh, oh, oh)
What the hell do we do now?
(Oh, oh, oh)
[Chorus]
You always catch my weakest moments
Break me down like only you know how (Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha)
What the hell do we do now? (Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha)
Broke your heart, I didn't mean it
Wish it didn't drag us so far down (Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha)
What the hell do we do now? (Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha)
Maybe I'll see you around
[Post-Chorus]
(Oh, oh, oh)
What the hell do we do now?
(Oh, oh, oh)
