[Verse 1]
Never thought it would hurt forever
When I asked you for your name
Permanently printed letters
That I wish I could replace
Think I’ll take the backseat
Listening to Backstreet
Singing yes, I know it’s too late
Say you want it that way
Couldn’t meet me halfway
Tell me if the ink's still worth the pain

[Chorus]
'Cause you’re everything that I never needed
But I tried to give you everything
You left me defeated
Why do you think I would
Keep you, treat you
Wish it was nicе to meet you
You scar me like a tattoo

[Verse 2]
You pick and choose whеn you wanna be happy
Or you wanna get at me
No thought, one shot
Blindfolded throwing darts at a flash sheet
We’re falling off the love seat
Listening to Ashlee
Thought you knew all the pieces of me
Used to be our favorite
Tattooed like a bracelet
Now you hide me underneath your sleeve
[Chorus]
'Cause you’re everything that I never needed
But I tried to give you everything
You left me defeated
Why do you think I would
Keep you, treat you
Wish it was nice to meet you
You scar me like a tattoo

[Bridge]
Is it such a bad thing if we stay together?
Really don’t think that we’ll last forever
Such a bad thing if we stay together

[Chorus]
'Cause you’re everything that I never needed
But I tried to give you everything
You left me defeated
Why do you think I would
Keep you, treat you
Wish it was nice to meet you
You scar me like a tattoo

[Outro]
You scar me like a tattoo
You scar me like a tattoo
