(Verse 1)
I’m sorry for what I’m about to tell you
I can see the panic in your eyes
Hold your face and tell you you’re so special to me
I could have stayed here but I have to say goodbye

(Pre-Chorus)
So please forgive me
As I step away from you

(Chorus)
I’m sorry I don’t wanna be the bad guy
But I’m gonna have to be one today
Maybe, darling, in another lifetime
I wouldn’t have to wipe your tears away

(Verse 2)
Lately I’ve been digging up a graveyard
Taking the night shift, putting memoriеs in a box beneath the pinе trees
You’re gentle and you’re kind but oh our love it suffocates me
And I barely crossed that finish line alive

(Pre-Chorus)
So please forgive me
As I step away from you
(Chorus)
I’m sorry I don’t wanna be the bad guy
But I’m gonna have to be one today
Maybe, darling, in another lifetime
Our story wouldn’t have to end this way

(Bridge)
My hearts still beating but not for you
Wish that I had never loved you
’Cause now I’m bleeding
Are you still breathing?
Tale it back all of my feelings
All the nights and every morning
Take it from me
It’s not who I wanna be

(Outro)
I’m sorry I don’t wanna be the bad guy
But now that’s how you’ll always look at me
