[English]

You never quite said it

So that'll go as far

I bet you regret it

When you kiss someone new

Why won't you admit it?

I know that it's hard

To say I'm the reason

You're scared of the dark

Call oh I left now I'm not gone

It's funny how everyday

You said that you moved on

I hope that everywhere you go

And everything you do

You'll never forget me

I'll be watching you and when you take her home

You're kissing someone new

You'll be wishing it was me on top of you

When she's in your bed

I'll be in your head

You'll be thinking about me instead

Everywhere you go

And everything you do

You'll never escape me

Baby I'm gonna haunt

You asked me to promise

To leave you alone

But that would be boring

So sorry, it's a no

Cause I kind of like it when I'm fucking with your head

I kind of like the games I play

I smile when I see you upset

Call oh I left now I'm not gone

It's funny how everyday

You said that you moved on

I hope that everywhere you go

And everything you do

You'll never forget me

I'll be watching you and when you take her home

You're kissing someone new

You'll never Escape Me

Baby I'm Gonna

When she's in your bed

I'll be in your head

You'll be thinking about me instead

Everywhere you go

And everything you do

You'll never escape me

Baby I'm gonna haunt

I know where you live

So watch your fucking back

I'm gonna teach you not to treat a girl like that

First thing when you wake

The last thing that you'll see

You get what you give when you mess with me
