I can break your heart
The way you want me to
Cuz' you only want me when I
Act like I don't want you
I'm busy building these walls
Ignoring all of your calls
To make you come, make you come a little closer
Do I have my love inside, somewhere where you can find?
I know you wanna know, let me show you
I could be good to you, I could be good to you
Just tell me that you want
I could be good to you, but you want me to be cruel
I could be good to you, I could be good to you
Just tell me that you want
I could be good to you, but you want me to be cruel to you
Want me to be cruel to you
I can give it up
Just to take you off the way
The way you want me to
Cause this love know, this love know
I'm in control of you
I'm busy building these walls
Ignoring all of your calls
To make you scream, make you scream a little louder
Do I have my love inside, somewhere where you can find?
I know you wanna know, let me show you
I could be good to you, I could be good to you
Just tell me that you want
I could be good to you, but you want me to be cruel
I could be good to you, I could be good to you
Just tell me that you want
I could be good to you, but you want me to be cruel
Want me to be cruel
Want me to be cruel
I'm breaking down these walls
Do you hear my calls?
Come, come, come, come a little closer
Do you want me to be cruel to you?
