I wanna be the victim
The aggressor
And the respite
And the stressor
And the worst one
Then the better
I might as well be alone forever
Right around this time last week's when I found out
I never could write love songs
And now I know why it felt wrong
And I'm having trouble being fair in my account
I'm biased
I'm violent
I can't do nice, I've tried it
That's all the information, tell me how I should be
'Cause I need good communication even as my heart bleeds
I-I was on my best behavior
Took all of my needs and I saved 'em for later
And there you go again looking for a new savior
But I'm good by myself, 'cause baby, that's my nature
Looking for new saviors
Tell me, baby, are there any takers?
I didn't think so
I know I struggle taking people at their word
Too guarded, suspicious, or am I just realistic?
Some days are better, but I still expect the worst
And that's no way to live (that's no way to live)
Maybe I'll be fine
Hah, maybe I'll just fall in love out of spite
I-I was on my best behavior (my best behavior)
Took all of my needs and I saved 'em for later
You're probably already onto your next savior
But I'm good by myself, 'cause baby, that's my nature
You've no idea how hard I tried to be someone you liked
If I made it look easy, I guess I'm doing it right
You've no idea how hard I tried to be someone you liked
If I made it look easy, I guess I'm doing it right
You've no idea how hard I tried to be someone you liked
You've no idea of the work
There's things I never said
'Cause I didn't wanna hurt you
I just keep them in my head
'Cause, usually, it's not worth it, worth it
Are you worth it, worth it?
I wanna be the victim
The aggressor
And the respite
And the stressor
And the worst one
Then the better
I guess it's me and myself forever
I wanna be the victim
The aggressor
And the respite
And the stressor
And the worst one
Then the better
The aggressor
And the respite
And the stressor
And the worst one
Then the better
I might as well be alone forever
Right around this time last week's when I found out
I never could write love songs
And now I know why it felt wrong
And I'm having trouble being fair in my account
I'm biased
I'm violent
