I'm not someone you should love now, baby.
I'll ruin your life,
I'll drive you crazy.

I'm the boy your daddy warned you about.

So listen to my heartfelt cries
my tearful pleas
these long goodbyes.
Know it's not what I want to say
but I can't bear to hurt you this way.

I've seen your tears,
watched your heart crack
And I wish I could take you back.

You made me happy
I felt alive
Life was more than the way to survive.

But you deserve more
My life is too heavy
And we are both too broken already.

Maybe one day we'll find this funny.
I can't be the strength for your scars now, honey.


Oh, by the way - I'm in love with someone else.
