[English]

I've got the devil chillin' on my shoulder

Telling me that soon it's gonna be over

Cause why would anybody get closer to me?

So tell me, what am I waiting for?

Do I think there must be something more?

One year in and I'm out the door complete

If I'm honest I've come to hate myself tonight

Do this every time

Why do I keep fucking good things up?

Runnin' from the ones I love the most

Show me how to let somebody in

Seven-hundred nights I've spent alone

I self-sabotage

I self-sabotage

I self-sabotage every little thing

Every little thing

I know that I'm hard to love

I understand that you've had enough

Round and round, the same cycle

Can make you feel like a psycho

If I'm honest I've come to hate myself tonight

Do this every time

Why do I keep fucking good things up?

Runnin' from the ones I love the most

Show me how to let somebody in

Seven-hundred nights I've spent alone

I self-sabotage

I self-sabotage

I self-sabotage every little thing

Every little thing

I self-sabotage

I self-sabotage

I self-sabotage every little thing

Every little thing

...

Why do I keep fucking good things up?

Runnin' from the ones I love the most

Show me how to let somebody in

Seven-hundred nights I've spent alone

I self-sabotage

I self-sabotage

I self-sabotage every little thing

Every little thing

...
