It’s You, Not Me (Sabotage)

Why do I sabotage everything I love?

It's always beautiful until I mess it up

It's like you don't believe in love, so we lost the touch
It's like you wanna cross wires just to cut 'em off
It's like you made the metal just so you can see the rust
Like you want the, tick-tick, boom, just to self-destruct
And I ain't sitting here waiting for you to detonate
Pulling pins on hand grenades and going in for a hug

Building bridges so you can blow 'em up
I can't be your life support, if all you do is really wanna pull the plug
I put myself into this spiral, but you're the one that's twisted
It gеts hard 'cause I see poison mixed up with a vixen
But listеn, it's my fault 'cause I love the chase
All you do is give me three letters, you go MIA

Why do I sabotage everything I love?

It's always beautiful until I mess it up

Why do I sabotage everything I love?

The walls are closin' in because I built them up

There's a part of me that thinks you love being broken
You built the walls up then tear them down just to see the motion
And that train of thought really put me off track
Had me thinking 'bout my ex like we talkin' 'bout maths
Three strikes but you still wanna throw a curveball
This hit my turn-off, leave the car turned on

I'ma hop out 'cause I'm sick of wasting my breath
Clip my wings, tell me to fly, that's your butterfly effect
That cacoon broke out, and that room no sound
Your silent thoughts can't tell me what to do right now
Chinese whispers, going to make the half of me to ever listen
You sabotage the image, so don't ask me for forgiveness, uh

Why do I sabotage everything I love?

It's always beautiful until I mess it up

Why do I sabotage everything I love?

The walls are closin' in because I built them up

So don't let me hope too high
Don't let me hope too high
'Cause I will find a way to tear it down every time

Don't let me hope too high
When everything is right
'Cause I will find a way to tear it down every time

I sabotage (why you sabotage?)
Everything I love (everything I loved)
It's always beautiful until I mess it up

Why do I sabotage everything I love?

It's always beautiful until I mess it up

Why do I sabotage everything I love?

The walls are closin' in because I built them up

Why do I sabotage?
