"acting like that" lyrics

"acting like that"
(feat. Machine Gun Kelly)

Who's that knocking at four in the morning? (Four in the morning)
Cause it don't rain but tonight it's pourin' (Tonight it's pourin')
You like it more when I ignore it (You like it, yeah)
And since I left, LA got boring (Since I've been gone)

Hey, I'm back on my bullshit
You're a Libra, I'm a Taurus
Heard you hooked back up with your ex
And now you're asleep on my doorstep

You're way too hot to be actin' like that
Actin' like that
Actin' like that
You're way too hot to be actin' like that
Actin' like that
Actin' like that
I don't want to talk right now
You're asleep outside my house
You're way too hot to be actin' like that
Actin' like that
Actin' like that

I heard it today you got on a plane to another state
I think I'm okay, never gonna change my mind
Never gonna change my mind
And I don't think today is the last time
That the bright lights hit the dark side
I can see that look in your eyes
I can see that look in your eyes, yeah

Now I can't sleep, I'm all alone
And what we reaped is what we've sown
So can we meet somewhere in the middle?
(Yeah)

You're way too hot to be actin' like that
Actin' like that
Actin' like that
You're way too hot to be actin' like that
Actin' like that
Actin' like that
I don't want to talk right now (Right now)
You're asleep outside my house (You're asleep outside my house)
You're way too hot to be actin' like that
Actin' like that
Actin' like that

I'm goin' out my head
I fell in love again
And I know that you'll forget me in the morning
When you are gone again
(Yeah)

You're way too hot to be actin' like that
Actin' like that
Actin' like that
You're way too hot to be actin' like that
Actin' like that
Actin' like that
I don't want to talk right now (I don't want to talk right now)
You're asleep outside my house (You're asleep outside my house)
You're way too hot to be actin' like that
Actin' like that
Actin' like that

Some fans first heard "Acting Like That" at a party in December 2019 when Machine Gun Kelly and YUNGBLUD first played it to celebrate the success of their first collaboration, "I Think I'm OKAY". These lyrics contain a line "I think I'm okay" as a reference to that song.
This song features Travis Barker (Blink-182) on drums. YUNGBLUD said of this track in a press statement, "'Acting Like That' is a result of what happens when me, MGK and Travis get together, the energy's electric and we write songs that amplify a feeling. This song radiates just going fucking nuts at your favorite show, a feeling that we all need right now. This song is about losing control and feeling free with your best fucking mates."
Machine Gun Kelly's album "Tickets To My Downfall" was planned to include this song on its track list but it didn't make the final cut.
