BEFORE LOVE CAME TO KILL US

SAME SIDE

on BEFORE LOVE CAME TO KILL US (2020)

[Verse 1]
How come I can't leave ya?
Talk to myself at night, wondering why
I feel like I am tied down to someone
Who's making me cry more than making me smile
Leave ya, just make it through the night
Lying to myself, saying I'll be fine
I don't want you, I hate you, I think
But I don't wanna be alone either

[Chorus]
You're such an asshole, but I see a prince
And I'm a good girl, but you see a bitch
I wanna make love, you wanna burn a bridge
So I wish I was a bad guy
So we could just be fighting on the same side, yeah
You're such an asshole, but I see a prince
And I'm a good girl, but you see a bitch
So I wish I was a bad guy
Just to be with you
Just to be with you

[Verse 2]
How come I won't believe ya?
You said all your goodbyes
You said that you would be out my life
If I could just let you go, let you be on your own
But love, I need ya
You used to be paradise
You used to be where I would go to hide
From people who treat me the way that you treated me
I don't believe ya

[Chorus]
You're such an asshole, but I see a prince
And I'm a good girl, but you see a bitch
I wanna make love, you wanna burn a bridge
So I wish I was a bad guy
So we could just be fighting on the same side, yeah
You're such an asshole, but I see a prince
And I'm a good girl, but you see a bitch
So I wish I was a bad guy
Just to be with you

[Bridge]
Sorry I'm not your ex
I'm sorry I'm not who you thought you'd get
I'm sorry that I'm lacking self-respect
Shoulda left when you started hopping beds
I'm sorry I made this world in my head
I'm sorry I don't wanna quit this yet
I'm sorry, I swear that I tried my best
I'm sorry, can you be sorry instead?

[Outro]
Just to be with you
Just to be with you
Just to be with you
Just to be with you
Just to be with you
Just to be with you
