[Verse 1]
You could show up on the fourteenth
Chocolate-covered candy, roses in your hand
All strong with a letter
You could bring me Doxylamine when my nose is running
Give me all of Walgreens just to get better

[Pre-Chorus]
Say every line perfectly practiced
Repaint the sky so there's never shades of grey
Show up on time, even on traffic
Be the perfect candidate

[Chorus]
I'm sorry to tell you
You're coming out the bad guy
'Cause you can't live up to the version of you I made inside my mind
And I'm sorry to tell you
You're already on my bad side
'Cause I put my hopes in a person to reach an impossible high
So, they're always the bad guy

[Verse 2]
I'll blame it on the heartbreak, every promise he made
Just to go and unsay every forever
So now I brace for landing, overthink the ending
So it's not as bad when I'm underwater
[Pre-Chorus]
But you say every line perfectly practiced
Repaint the sky so there's never shades of grey
Show up on time, even on traffic
You're the perfect candidate

[Chorus]
I'm sorry to tell you
You're coming out the bad guy
'Cause you can't live up to the version of you I made inside my mind
And I'm sorry to tell you
You're already on my bad side
'Cause I put my hopes in a person to reach an impossible high
So, they're always the bad guy

[Bridge]
(So they're always the bad guy)
(So they're always the—)
I'm sorry to tell you

[Chorus]
I'm sorry to tell you
You're coming out the bad guy
'Cause you can't live up to the version of you I made inside my mind
And I'm sorry to tell you
You're already on my bad side
'Cause I put my hopes in a person to reach an impossible high
So, they're always the bad guy
[Outro]
Yeah, they're always the bad guy
Yeah, they're always the—
