[Verse 1]
You're running, running away from me
There's so much, so much that we could be
But you seem terrified of what you feel inside
You're running, running away from me

[Chorus]
Like love is a bad word

[Verse 2]
You're holding, holding your tongue with me
You're causing a state of emergency
I need your voice right now
To wash away my doubt
You're holding, holding your tongue

[Chorus]
Like love is a bad word

[Bridge]
I can't help but wonder what's been on your mind, yeah
Like you're sabotaging every time it's right
I don't understand why you lie
You've been getting wasted 'cause you don't wanna face this

[Chorus 2]
You're holding, holding your tongue with me
You're causing a state of emergency
Love is a bad word
