Bad Guy
[Verse 1]
You're the last thing I look at before I fall asleep
But the image of your face, my mind can't seem to keep
When I wake up in the A.M. there's a shadow in my place
Feel so guilty that I'm laying in your arms and to your face
So close, but you and I both know
I bought some bubble gum at Dee's, he said "Thanks have a nice day"
Things that used to make me smile seem to be so far away
Reach for water on the night-stand, the glass is half empty
Why'd you drink so much? You know I've never been so damn thirsty
Hey, you blame it all on me...
[Chorus]
Why am I the bad guy?
For wanting something better than how I feel when we're together?
This good night is a crime
There's no escaping, got my white flag waving I'm ready to do my time
[Verse 2]
My shrink blames it on my father, this co-dependency
I don't wanna be a prisoner, but I'm scared of being free
Sometimes I think you're always shouting, you like to hear your voice
The day I realized I don't love you was the day I made a choice
To try, I can't look you in the eye
[Chorus]
Why am I the bad guy?
For wanting something better than how I feel when we're together?
This good night is a crime
There's no escaping, got my white flag waving I'm ready to do my time
[Bridge]
Beautiful, turned so miserable
Who's gonna rescue me?
Guess I went too far, wishing on a star
There's a price to pay
Baby why'd it go away?
[Chorus]
Why am I the bad guy?
For wanting something better than how I feel when we're together?
This good night is a crime
There's no escaping, got my white flag waving I'm ready to do my time
I'm ready to do my time
