[English]

We fight every day and night

You want me to make the time

You always get mad and say what you coulda had

And that you want me to make it right, uh

I couldn't do that to save my life

You always tell me you ain't surprised

You said it's the last time, I guess that you were right

'Cause I'm not the one with you tonight

And now I'm so sick of these love songs

so sad and slow

And I'm so sick of wishin'

I had you on my own

And oh, baby, I've been fucked up

ever since you've been gone

I can't bring myself to even pick up my phone

I need you the most

I need you the most

I need you the most

I need you the most

I need you the most

I ain't gon' lie, oh baby I've been fucked up

I said I was sorry for all of the times I fucked up, fuck love

Got me thinkin' while I put my cup up

Tonight is in memory of you, I'm gettin' fucked up

Oh, just one more chance to make it right

Promise I got you, so tell me what's up?

I don't think that I can keep goin' this way

I can't take it

And now I'm so sick of these love songs

so sad and slow

And I'm so sick of wishin'

I had you on my own

And oh, baby, I've been fucked up

ever since you've been gone

I can't bring myself to even pick up my phone

I need you the most

I need you the most

I need you the most

I need you the most

I need you the most
