lyrics

You should've put a bullet in my head,
You sunk five in my chest and let me bleed out, instead
I should've seen you for the wolf you are, not some tiny little lamb
I should've listened when they told me to run as fast as I can

The hardest thing I ever learned was how to love and then to burn
I lit a fire, I'll watch it spread, and then I'll sleep when you're dead

Now I won't claim I'm innocent,
I figured what you said was what you meant
I guess I should've asked more directly
There are things I'd like to know
Like why my heart races, why yours beats slow
And how you sleep, knowing you've taken me for a fool
