We both came with scars, we both learned to hide,
But something about you keeps pulling me inside.
We fight like strangers, then look like lovers,
One minute we’re breaking, the next we discover
That your hands on mine make the whole world slow,
And the way that you look at me says what you don’t show.
We push, we pull,
We lose control,
You know my body,
I know your soul.
Every time we say goodbye,
We end up getting closer,
Like the heat between us
Only makes us want each other more.
We’re a beautiful mess,
Heaven on our lips, chaos in our heads.
You’re my sweetest temptation,
My favorite complication.
We burn like fire,
Then cool like rain,
Kiss through the anger,
And forget the pain.
We’re a beautiful mess,
Too much desire, never quite enough.
You’re the one I shouldn’t want,
But the one I can’t give up.
We’re crazy, we’re reckless,
But somehow it feels right
You’re my beautiful mess
In the middle of the night.
Your eyes say “stay” when your words say “go,”
And I know that look because I feel it too.
We’re both afraid of being left behind,
So we sabotage the love we’re trying to find.
Then you get close and the walls come down,
No more pretending, no more playing around.
Just your heartbeat against mine,
And for a little while,
Everything broken feels perfectly fine.
Maybe we’re trouble,
Maybe we’re fate,
Maybe our timing was always too late.
But when you pull me closer,
I forget what I know
There’s nowhere I’d rather be
Than right here, this close.
We’re a beautiful mess,
Heaven on our lips, chaos in our heads.
You’re my sweetest temptation,
My favorite complication.
We burn, we break,
Then start again,
Two wounded hearts
That keep falling in.
Maybe we’re crazy,
Maybe we’re obsessed,
But nobody gets underneath my skin
Like you do, baby
My beautiful mess.
