[Verse]
I met a liar who reflected in me
I don't think they could tell
I loved a girl who I didn't deserve
So I fucked that up as well
I haven't cut a line in ten long years
Sure does make me think
I wrote a list of my character flaws
Pen ran out of ink

I've said it all along
If you love me, then love me to death

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm the noose in the nook
I'm the bad ending book
I'm the one that you wish got away
Before you bit the hook

[Chorus]
I will always learn thе hard way
Compromising those I love
I'd be finе with hurting myself
If it didn't overflow to them

If I love you, I'll love you to death
[Verse]
You'll feel the weight of my actions
I wish I couldn't tell, tell
In spite of all my discretion
I'm poisoning the well, well

I had a girl who was too good for me
She soon would see the same
Do as I say and never as I do
I've put that rule to shame

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm the noose in the nook
I'm the bad ending book
I'm the rush that you get when you want to
But can't bear to look

[Chorus]
I will always learn the hard way
Compromising those I love
I'd be fine with hurting myself
If it didn't overflow to them
Learn the hard way
Those I love
Compromising everything I am
[Outro]
Counterproductive and a little destructive
Selfish, like the past ten years didn't even happen
So, I guess I'm learning slow

Caution when approaching
Watch for warning signs
I embody every red flag
It gets bad, I know
Yeah, I know it gets bad
I've said it all along
If you love me, then love me to death
