[Verse 1]
I remember the rise
We were running backyard to yard
Wasn’t scared of going too far, staying out til it’s too dark
[Pre-Chorus]
Now daylight don’t make it right
And you would really know …
[Verse 1]
What if I let you in and you don’t like what you see?
‘Cause it’s not what it seems, let me tell you why
You have no idea, yeah, you only …
[Intro: Bebe Rexha & Producer]
Do it again, ready, yeah, one more time?
Yeah
And keep going, and keep going like this this this thing
Yaaas
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, whatever, it’ll be double long
That’s hot, …
[Chorus]
Got no self control
And I don’t mean cigarettes and alcohol
‘Cause when it comes to you I can’t say no
I don’t want a taste, I want it all
[Verse 1]
When I get …
[Verse 1]
I just wanna kiss your face
I just wanna feel your gaze
I just wanna, I just wanna
I just wanna be where you are
I just wanna feel your touch
I’m not asking …
I have never felt so fucking numb.
In front of the mirror with a loaded gun.
Every word you read is stained in blood.
This gets sick cause I’m mind-fucked.1
I’ve died and my body turned to rust.
An empty carcass left to rot back to dust.2
Like a casket in a shallow grave
Out of sight, but I promise it will never go away.3
These words may sound all the same.
I have bled to death on every page.4
Watch as my heart turns to stone.
Watch me die without hope.5
I don’t want to break your heart with mine.
Everything I know about life is a lie.6
This is what I feared the most.
Wanting love but chasing ghosts.7
And it won’t matter when I forget your name.
You know exactly what I am, and you know I love the pain.8
Remember my words but forget my face.
Every fucking scar screams your name.9
Remember my words but forget my face.
Every fucking scar screams your name.
[2x]
And it won’t matter when I forget your name.
You know exactly what I am, and you know I love the pain.
Remember my words but forget my face.
Every fucking scar screams your name.
I have never felt so fucking numb.
In front of the mirror with a loaded gun.
Every word you read is stained in blood.
This gets sick cause I’m mind-fucked
These words may sound all the same,
I have bled to death on every page.
Watch as my heart turns to stone.
Watch me die without hope.
Watch as my heart turns to stone.
Watch me die without hope.
And it won’t matter when I forget your name.
You know exactly what I am, and you know I love the pain.
Remember my words but forget my face.
Every fucking scar screams your name.10
