Don't Make Me

Benefit of the doubt is my weakness

Turning the other cheek to see you less

All of our friends are my army, yeah

Let's say it right, not my fault you got regrets

Heads that tip for hot camera flashes

Bloodied lips, nursing right out the glasses

Diamond, pearl and ruby, all swoon

Can I offer you a little salt for that wound?

I've tried to take you lying down

I clarified, tip-toed around

Lines in the sand, clear and defined

But you cross them every time

Don't make me be the bad guy

Don't make me be the bad guy

Despite all of my foresight

I keep hoping I'll be right about you

But you're my first psycho

So hell what do I know?

I'm new to being the bad guy

No, don't make me be the bad guy

Paradise lost, you're fallen from grace

You're cracking my ribs with just one embrace

Your offering's empty, godless and cold

I could read you like a book and it's getting old

Never was built to be this way

But turns out the villain is fun to play

Your Hollywood romance, extra and sappy, but

Spoiler alert: The ending ain't happy

Eggshells crack beneath your feet

The ugly truth is bittersweet

So dress it up in fancy clothes

But we both know how this goes

Don't make me be the bad guy

No, don't make me be the bad guy

Despite all of my foresight

Keep hoping I'll be right about you

But you're my first psycho

So hell what do I know?

I'm new to being the bad guy

No, don't make me be the bad guy

No longer a pretty view ahead

Lies did not become us

You became them instead

Don't make me be the bad guy (ha, ha, ha, ha, yeah)

Don't make me be the bad guy (ha, ha, ha, ha, yeah)

Despite all of my foresight (ha, ha, ha, ha, yeah)

I keep hoping I'll be right about you

But you're my first psycho (oh ya, yeah, yeah)

So hell what do I know? (Yeah, yeah)

I'm new to being the bad guy (don't make me be the bad guy)

No, don't make me be the bad guy (don't make me be the bad guy)

Despite all of my foresight (yeah, yeah, despite all of my foresight)

I keep hoping I'll be right about you

But you're my first psycho

So hell what do I know? (I know)

I'm new to being the bad guy

No, don't make me be the bad guy (bad guy)

Hmm

No, don't make me be the bad guy
