Why do I stick around by your side,
when the only thing you do is eat me alive?
I remember the first time I met you I was sixteen years old,
didn’t know you’ll turn my world so cold.
You were always there when I would hang out with the crew.
My eyes shined bright as soon as I looked at you.
Who would have known it was love at first sight
and to top it of, she made me feel just right.
At first it’s fun and games,
but after a while you realize you’re surrounded by a bunch of lames.
I know you’re bad for me and I know I should stop
but there I am again, getting money at the pawnshop.
Because of you I can’t sleep.
It’s sad to say that without you my day is not complete.
You can’t hide from me, I know I can find you in any street.
I can see my stomach getting hollowed, I think I should probably eat.
I should probably cut this short..
All you do is bring me bad vibes and never the right support.
