"Built To Be Bad" lyrics

"Built To Be Bad"

I used to take a hundred photographs
Just to send the perfect one
I felt a hundred butterflies
Every time your name came up
Three more years than you deserved
Nervous when you never were
Just one of like a hundred girls
You'll never know how much it hurt
When I saw her photograph next to mine
She had cocoa hair laying by your side
You said, "She's a friend," for the hundredth time
But I saw your face, and your face don't lie

I know I should just cut the ties
But I can't be cold when I see you cry
Now it's 4 AM as we talk online
And I hate myself

I should kick you the fuck out my life
Break your heart like you broke mine
But I'm not built to be bad to you
I should move on like we never met
Give you a taste of revenge
But I'm not built to be bad to you

I wish it didn't have to be this way
Know I'm supposed to hate on you
But it's not in my DNA
No, I could never be so cruel
My sister called me
Said "Grace, you're crazy
If you believe that he's really changing
Have you forgotten about all those times
That you caught him out and he lied and lied?"

It's about time that he tasted karma
But I can't do it, I'm not that heartless
I know she's right, but I close my eyes
And I hate myself

I should kick you the fuck out life
Break your heart like you broke mine
But I'm not built to be bad to you
I should move on like we never met
Give you a taste of revenge
But I'm not built to be bad to you

(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) I
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) Ooh, I
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) No, I'm not built to be bad to you
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) Oh
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) No
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh) No, I'm not built to be bad to you

I should kick you the fuck out my life
Break your heart like you broke mine
But I'm not built to be bad to you
I should move on like we never met
Give you a taste of revenge
But I'm not built to be bad to you
