[Verse 1]
I bet you're pacin' small circles
Back in your apartment, dear
So I close my eyes and crack a bottle
Hopin' it will get me there, I'm aware
I'm the reason that we're so upset
And I can't help it, I know I'll regret my words
Before they're said out loud
I'm the reason that I hate myself
[Pre-Chorus]
Tonight
You're lovin' me lonely, but you'll never know me
Tonight
I'm makin' excuses for why you can't hold me
Tonight
It's not fair
When I'm tellin' you that I don't care
You know I do
I'm just scared
[Chorus]
That it's gonna hurt
Hurt so bad when you go
When I say the things that you won't
That's how I know I can't get too close
'Cause it's gonna hurt like
[Post-Chorus]
Hell
Hell
[Verse 2]
Spent a lot of days stuck with you
Revolving in my atmosphere
Wish I could reach the stars and pull 'em down to Earth
So I could have you here and not be scared
But I'm afraid that if I say too much
Or if I think too much, then I might fu*k it up again (Again)
Just like I always do, but I won't do
[Pre-Chorus]
Tonight
I'm keepin' my guard up to not get my hopes up
Tonight
I'm makin' excuses to hate you to get through
Tonight
It's not fair
Yeah, it's obvious that I still care
You know I do
I'm just scared
[Chorus]
That it's gonna hurt
Hurt so bad when you go
When I say the things that you won't
That's how I know I can't get too close
'Cause it's gonna hurt like
[Post-Chorus]
Hell
Hell
'Cause it's gonna hurt like
Hell
Hell
[Bridge]
I never wanted to be
Someone who needs
Someone afraid of the dark
So what did you want me to see?
Who did you want me to be?
Bigger than anything?
I never wanted to be
Someone who needs
Someone afraid of the dark
So what did you want me to see?
Who did you want me to be?
[Verse 3]
Spent a lot of days stuck with you
Revolving in my atmosphere
Wish I could touch the stars and cross 'em all
Forget the way you make me feel
[Refrain]
Hell
Hell
It's gonna hurt, it's gonna hurt like
Hell
Hell
It's gonna hurt, it's gonna hurt me like hell
[Outro]
I never wanted to be
Someone who needs (I never wanted to be)
Someone afraid of the dark
So what did you want me to see? (What did you want me to be?)
Who did you want me to be?
Bigger than anything?
I never wanted to be
Someone who needs
Someone afraid of the dark
So what did you want me to see?
Who did you want me to be?
It's gonna hurt me like
