Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Oh yeah, oh no, oh no

I'm gon' save her tonight

But you lied, savior, but you lied

You lied to me

Said you'd take a bullet Told me you would die for me

I had a really bad feelin' You'd be lyin' to me

We were on the low But you were gettin' high with me

Learned a lesson When you showed a different side, I see

Said you'd die for me You'd die for me, you'd die for me

But you lied to me You lied to me, you lied to mе

Said you'd die for me You'd die for mе, you'd die for me

But you lied to me You lied to me, you lied to me, yeah

I hope you think about me Every time you touch it

I hope your new girl Hears it and she loves it

Devil's front door And I'm bangin' on the line

If I said I want an answer I'd be lyin', I'd be lyin', yeah

They say what the devil can't do

He's gonna send a woman to

You seek to hide You're dead inside, won't see me cry

Said you'd take a bullet Told me you would die for me

I had a really bad feelin' You'd be lyin' to me

We were on the low But you were gettin' high with me

Learned a lesson When you showed a different side, I see

Said you'd die for me You'd die for me, you'd die for me

But you lied to me You lied to me, you lied to me

Said you'd die for me You'd die for me, you'd die for me

But you lied to me You lied to me, you lied to me, yeah

Settle down, I'll spell it out It's simple enough

I came around I figured out I should follow my gut

I don't play anymore I went through your phone

And called the girls in your DMs And took all them home

And I know it's been a while Since the last time you heard from me

Grew into a savage You can hear it in this verse, honey

Turns out it shows 'Cause they turn out at shows

I sold 40 million copies Of our break-up note

Brought some strangers in our bed So now you lost your right to privacy

Spillin' all our secrets

You thought They'd probably die with me, nope

Know you fuckin' love it on the low

And you don't have to say I'm crazy 'Cause I know

Nothing's changed though

Said you'd take a bullet Told me you would die for me

I had a really bad feelin' You'd be lyin' to me

We were on the low But you were gettin' high with me

Learned a lesson When you showed a different side, I see

Said you'd die for me You'd die for me, you'd die for me

But you lied to me You lied to me, you lied to me

Said you'd die for me You'd die for me, you'd die for me

But you lied to me You lied to me, you lied to me, yeah

This is the last time I'ma do you the honor

I gave you a headline I know I shouldn't bother

This is a lesson to take Hold someone tight and they break

Then you say it's a mistake But you meant it anyway

Now you can blame me

Tell them you made me

Ignore the shit that you did on the daily

Think that you played me But you can't save me

All of that shit 'bout How I'm fuckin' crazy

Said you'd take a bullet Told me you would die for me

I had a really bad feelin' You'd be lyin' to me

We were on the low But you were gettin' high with me

Learned a lesson When you showed a different side, I see

Said you'd die for me You'd die for me, you'd die for me

But you lied to me You lied to me, you lied to me

Said you'd die for me You'd die for me, you'd die for me

But you lied to me You lied to me, you lied to me

Yeah
