Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm anxious, kinda sad
Hard to be your best when you've lost the best you had
Spending days just on my phone
Wondering where it all went wrong
I'm nervous, pretty wired
I said your name too much, now my lungs got tired
Thinking maybe I'm to blame
I just need someone to hate
[PreChorus]
Oh-oh-oh-oh
You made this so damn hard for me
You and your goddamn honesty
It got me thinking
[Chorus]
I wish you woulda cheated
And smashed my heart to pieces
I wish I had a reason I could hate your guts for leaving
I wish you were the villain
A psycho with no feelings
So how do I move on
When you did nothing wrong?
(Ah) Wish you did something wrong
(Ah) But you did nothing wrong
[Verse 2]
Know it's messed up, kinda bad
But I wish we didn't talk and you just left like that
I'd be angry instead of numb
Dammit, who have I become?
[PreChorus]
Oh-oh-oh-oh
You made this so damn hard for me
You and your goddamn honesty
It got me thinking
[Chorus]
I wish you woulda cheated
And smashed my heart to pieces
I wish I had a reason I could hate your guts for leaving
I wish you were the villain
A psycho with no feelings
So how do I move on
When you did nothing wrong?
(Ah) Wish you did something wrong
(Ah) But you did nothing wrong
[Bridge]
In the middle of the night
I start to fantasise that you had ruined my whole life
Oh whoa, 'cause you're the best I had
And I keep running back like a goddamn fool, tryna change your mind
You were all mine
Can't believe I
[Chorus]
Wish you woulda cheated
And smashed my heart to pieces
I wish I had a reason I could hate your guts for leaving
I wish you were the villain
A psycho with no feelings
So how do I move on
When you did nothing wrong?
