[Verse 1]
We were laughing in the checkout line
Picking snacks like we had all this time
You stole my hoodie
Called it “ours now”
Kissed my neck
Said “I’m not letting go”
Two days later
Just a text on read
“Need some space
” like we were in my head
You packed your plants
Left your mug
That note
“Please don’t call
” like it was mercy
Not a choke
[Pre-Chorus]
You made me smaller just to fit your mood
But every fight ended up in your room
Face in your hands
“I swear I’ll be better”
Then your name lights up and I still answer
[Chorus]
You’re bad for me
But I’m worse when you’re gone
You tear me down
Then I’m writing you songs
Thought we were healing
You were halfway out the door
You’re bad for me
But I just want you more
I just want you more
[Verse 2]
You’d get jealous if I checked my phone
But went “it’s nothing” when you stayed out late alone
We’d break dishes
Then you’d pull me in
Say “we’re crazy
” like that made it safe again
My friends told me I was losing weight
Counting calories and all our breaks
You’d skip brunch
Say “they don’t like me”
I believed you
Now they barely recognize me
[Pre-Chorus]
You called me crying from your sister’s place
Swore you missed my hands
My stupid face
Said “you’re my home
I don’t know what I’m doing”
I know it’s poison
But I keep consuming
[Chorus]
You’re bad for me
But I’m worse when you’re gone
You tear me down
Then I’m writing you songs
Thought we were healing
You were halfway out the door
You’re bad for me
But I just want you more
[Bridge]
[low vocal register]
You kissed all my scars
Then you cut me new ones
Taught me soft love
Then you pulled the sun
Told your mom I was “just a phase”
But held my hand in every crowded space
I hate that I still sleep on your side
Leave a space like you might change your mind
If you called tonight
Said “I’m outside”
I’d be in your car before goodbye
[Chorus]
