Lyrics

(Intro)
(Yeah...)
(808 rumble)
You know this ain't gonna end well...
But we're here again.
(Verse 1 – Rap)
You said don't call me
Then you picked up twice
Said we should stop this
Then you stayed all night
We make plans
Then destroy them
Say goodbye
Then avoid it
Everybody tells us
"We don't make sense"
Maybe they're right
But we don't give a damn
You act like you hate me
I know that's a lie
I see how you look at me
When nobody's around
We keep pretending
We're better apart
But every time you leave
You take half of my heart
(Pre-Chorus)
We know we're trouble...
We know we're wrong...
But when you're beside me...
I don't wanna go home...
(Chorus)
We're a bad idea
But I want you anyway
We keep burning everything
Then doing it again
We're a bad idea
Nothing about us makes sense
Maybe we're a disaster...
But you're my favorite mess
(Verse 2 – Fast Rap)
Late night, missed calls
Your name lighting up my phone
You say you're with your friends
But I know you're coming home
No plans
No rules
No promises tonight
Just two broken people
Trying to make something feel right
We fight over nothing
Then laugh about it later
You tell me I'm impossible
I tell you you're a danger
You leave your things at mine
Like you're planning to return
Then disappear for days
Like you never saw me hurt
I know your little habits
You know every flaw I hide
That's probably why we keep returning
Every time we say goodbye
(Chorus)
We're a bad idea
But I want you anyway
We keep burning everything
Then doing it again
We're a bad idea
Nothing about us makes sense
Maybe we're a disaster...
But you're my favorite mess
(Verse 3 – Rap)
Maybe we're not lovers
Maybe we're not friends
Maybe we're just two people
Who don't know how to end
You say "this is the last time"
I say "I know"
Then the weekend comes around
And we're back where we were before
You know my darkest thoughts
I know what makes you cry
We know exactly where it hurts
And still we never say goodbye
If loving you is stupid
Then I don't wanna be wise
I'd rather make a mess with you
Than live a perfect lie
(Bridge)
(Beat drops)
Don't tell me we're forever...
Don't promise me you'll stay...
Just give me one more night...
Before you walk away...
(Final Verse – Fast Rap)
Yeah—
We don't need a future
We just need tonight
You keep saying "leave me"
Then you pull me back inside
We were never stable
Never meant to last
But every time I see you
I forget about the past
Maybe someday you'll find someone
Who gives you everything
Maybe I'll pretend I'm happy
When I see your wedding ring
But tonight you're here
And tomorrow isn't real
So let me lose myself in you
Before I have to heal
(Final Chorus)
We're a bad idea
But I want you anyway
We keep breaking everything
Then doing it again
We're a bad idea
Nothing about us makes sense
Maybe we're a disaster...
But you're my favorite mess
(Outro)
(808 fades)
(quiet laugh)
"Same time next summer?"
(Silence.)
