I live my life the way I want it to be
Your mother warned you about them pretty boys like me
When everything is gone
When your name is just a line in a song

So it might be best for you
It might be best to keep your distance now
I’m only trouble, I care for my own heart
Cared enough, now I’m back at the start

Don’t get caught up if I treat you well
I’m too short of attention, short on space
I’ll phase you out like a coward
Oh I don’t mean to hurt you
I know you’re a sweetheart

But it might be best for you
It might be best to keep your distance now
I’m only trouble, I care for my own heart
Cared enough, now I’m back at the start
