Sleeping over and I shouldn’t be
Ignoring my phone, what’s wrong with me
Black and yellow tape all over me
Lovesick puppy shade of green
Self-made martyr
Walking on my back when he wants
Ooh, I’m a goner
Going going gone when he calls
Everyday I’m battling
Just to keep your name from my lips
Everyday you caused me pain
But at least I felt something
Wanna be on your breath like the night when we slept
Not at all
Wanna be on your breath like the night when we slept
Not at all
I wanna be on your breath like the night when we slept
Not at all
My happy cracked, I want you back
Happy cracked, I want you back
B-b-bang-bang, b-b-body, bruise
Grippin’ collarbones, that good hurt
No, you never say her name in your sleep
But you don’t say anybody’s
Now I’m a self-made martyr
Walkin’ on my back when you want
Ooh, I’m a goner
Going, going, gone when you call
Wanna be on your breath like the night when we slept
Not at all
Wanna be on your breath like the night when we slept
Not at all
I wanna be on your breath like the night when we slept
Not at all
My happy cracked, I want you back
Happy cracked, I want you back
Wrongdoing in my bones, yeah I done wrong
When my man left our home, yeah I done wrong
Cheating heart, dirty soul, tell me I’m wrong
Baby pull me close
Wrongdoing in my bones, yeah I done wrong
When my man left our home, yeah I done wrong
Cheating heart, dirty soul, tell me I’m wrong
Baby pull me close
Baby pull me, won’t you pull me, won’t you pull me close
Wanna be on your breath like the night when we slept
Not at all
Wanna be on your breath like the night when we slept
Not at all
I wanna be on your breath like the night when we slept
Not at all
My happy cracked, I want you back
Happy cracked, I want you back
