Made plans with me and all your friends
00:12
I'm late again, I hate to keep you waiting
00:14
Tried to be a gentleman
00:19
Got drunk again before I even made it
00:20
Tried to call a car for you
00:25
You're tired of me, I knew you wouldn't take it
00:27
You walked a mile in Louis Vuittons
00:31
And fucked 'em up, you know that they're my favourite
00:33
But we dress up and play pretend
00:38
Then we act like we're good again
00:41
I do things I can't defend
00:44
And even when you hold it in
00:47
Hold it, even though it kills you slowly
00:51
Explosions, hidden when we're in the open
00:57
Keep on smiling until it's over
01:03
Hold it, even though it kills you slowly
01:10
Arguments that never end
01:16
You're talkin' shit to spice up conversation
01:18
I'm so sick of back and forth
01:23
These fights with you are startin' to feel contagious
01:24
Said that I'm no good for you
01:29
Right before we walk into your parents
01:31
Then you put on that smile again
01:35
And grabbed my hand even though you hate it
01:37
But we dress up and play pretend
01:42
Then we act like we're good again
01:45
I do things I can't defend
01:48
And even when you hold it in
01:51
Hold it, even though it kills you slowly
01:55
Explosions, hidden when we're in the open
02:01
Keep on smiling until it's over
02:07
Hold it, even though it kills you slowly
02:14
Oh but, but it-it, won't but, I said
02:20
You hold on, hopin' it gon' stop, but it don't
02:24
Oh but, but it-it, won't but, I said
02:27
You hold on, hopin' it gon' stop, but it don't
02:30
Hold it, even though it kills you slowly
02:33
Explosions, hidden when we're in the open
02:39
And keep on smiling until it's over
02:46
Hold it, even though it kills you slowly
02:53
Oh but, but it-it (hold it)
02:59
Won't but, I said (even though it kills you slowly)
03:01
You hold on, hopin' it gon' stop, but it don't
03:03
Oh but, but it-it (explosions)
03:06
Won't but, I said (hidden when we're in the open)
03:08
You hold on, hopin' it gon' stop, but it don't
03:10
Oh but, but it-it (keep on)
03:12
Won't but, I said (smiling)
03:14
You hold on, hopin' it gon' stop, but it don't (until it's over)
03:16
Oh but, but it-it (hold it)
03:18
Won't but, I said (even though it kills you slowly)
03:20
You hold on, hopin' it gon' stop, but it don't

[English]
Made plans with me and all your friendsI'm late again, I hate to keep you waiting
Tried to be a gentleman
Got drunk again before I even made it
Tried to call a car for you
You're tired of me, I knew you wouldn't take it
You walked a mile in Louis Vuittons
And fucked 'em up, you know that they're my favourite
But we dress up and play pretend
Then we act like we're good again
I do things I can't defend
And even when you hold it in
Hold it, even though it kills you slowly
Explosions, hidden when we're in the open
Keep on smiling until it's over
Hold it, even though it kills you slowly
Arguments that never end
You're talkin' shit to spice up conversation
I'm so sick of back and forth
These fights with you are startin' to feel contagious
Said that I'm no good for you
Right before we walk into your parents
Then you put on that smile again
And grabbed my hand even though you hate it
But we dress up and play pretend
Then we act like we're good again
I do things I can't defend
And even when you hold it in
Hold it, even though it kills you slowly
Explosions, hidden when we're in the open
Keep on smiling until it's over
Hold it, even though it kills you slowly
Oh but, but it-it, won't but, I said
You hold on, hopin' it gon' stop, but it don't
Oh but, but it-it, won't but, I said
You hold on, hopin' it gon' stop, but it don't
Hold it, even though it kills you slowly
Explosions, hidden when we're in the open
And keep on smiling until it's over
Hold it, even though it kills you slowly
Oh but, but it-it (hold it)
Won't but, I said (even though it kills you slowly)
You hold on, hopin' it gon' stop, but it don't

You hold on, hopin' it gon' stop, but it don't (until it's over)
Oh but, but it-it (hold it)

You hold on, hopin' it gon' stop, but it don't
