Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Woke up and you wasn't next to me this mornin'

Saw a yellow cab drive you down the street on Broadway

Wish I could erase the mistakes that I made, I'm sorry

Wanted me to chase you inside, but the house too haunted

I tried to get away with the worst; this time, you caught me

Tried to find a place for the words so I can say sorry

It's so shitty how I waste love

I know it's shitty how I waste love

Come home every night

I'm wasted, wasted, wasted, wasted, wasted

It's gettin' hard to fake how I feel when your face still taunts me

I know it's hard to fake how you feel, do you not still want me?

...

How'd you run away from the place you brought me?

I did it to myself, though, go ahead and blame this on me

You tried to get away with the worst; this time, I caught you

I tried to make you stay with my words, but this time, I lost you

So shitty how you waste love (it's shitty how I waste love)

It's so shitty how you waste love (I know it's shitty how I waste love)

Get home every night

You're wasted, wasted, wasted, wasted, wasted

...

Wait, I thought we were done

How'd you end up in my arms last night? (Fuck)

I guess a little bit of pain kinda make it feel good sometimes

Why you tryna run when I feel like you're the one sometimes?

I guess a little bit of pain kinda make it feel good

You tried to get away with the worst; this time, I caught you

(This time, this time, you caught me)

I tried to make you stay with my words, but this time, I lost you

(This time, this time, I lost you)

So shitty how you waste love (it's shitty how I waste love)

It's so shitty how you waste love (I know it's shitty how I waste love)

Get home every night

You're wasted, wasted, wasted, wasted, wasted

...

I thought we were done

How'd you end up in my arms last night?

I guess a little bit of pain kinda make it feel good sometimes

(Wanna make you feel good, run away, run away)

Why you try to run when it feel like you're the one sometimes?

I guess a little bit of pain kinda make it feel good
