[Verse 1]
He pulled up in that silver light
Looked like trouble in a perfect shirt
Said my name like he already knew
How to make a mess feel worth the hurt
He smiled like he owned the room
I should've run, I should've known
But there he was with those good intentions
And a face that felt like home
[Pre-Chorus]
If he’s gonna break my heart
Make it quick and make it art
I can take the falling apart
If he does it with a spark
[Chorus]
If he’s going to ruin you
At least let him be pretty
At least let him be pretty
Make the damage look good on me
If he’s going to ruin you
Let him do it like a movie
Let him do it like a movie
If I’m going down, be kind to me
[Verse 2]
He laughed while the whole world stared
Like nothing bad could touch that grin
I knew right then I was in too deep
And I still wanted to dive back in
He left lipstick on my last good plan
Left my pride in a parking lot
Now I’m half mad and half impressed
By the chaos that he taught
[Pre-Chorus]
If he’s gonna break my heart
Make it quick and make it art
I can take the falling apart
If he does it with a spark
[Chorus]
If he’s going to ruin you
At least let him be pretty
At least let him be pretty
Make the damage look good on me
If he’s going to ruin you
Let him do it like a movie
Let him do it like a movie
If I’m going down, be kind to me
[Bridge]
Oh, I know better
Oh, I know better
Still, I’d let him in again
With that half-smile, that wicked grin
Oh, I know better
Oh, I know better
But if the storm is coming through
I want the one with eyes like truth
[Chorus]
If he’s going to ruin you
At least let him be pretty
At least let him be pretty
Make the damage look good on me
If he’s going to ruin you
Let him do it like a movie
Let him do it like a movie
If I’m going down, be kind to me
