Verse 1
Why do I feel like walking when you're talking to me?
Why do I go see him when I know I shouldn't be?
I should be the hero in the story I've written
But I'm watching myself turn into the villain
Before chorus
And you say I've been acting strange
I promise I will change
Chorus
But I'm crossing my fingers behind my back
Blood on my hands from my latest attack
Tell you I love you, I'm no good at that
Can't see your fate? Well, I'm painting it black
Verse 2
Why do I tell these lies to the one I truly love?
Why can't I be the girl wearing white in his arms?
I should be the hero, the happy ever after
Why do all good things end in disaster?
Before chorus
You say I should play my part
But I've been bad from the start
Chorus
So I'm crossing my fingers behind my back
Blood on my hands from my latest attack
Tell you I love you, I'm no good at that
Can't see your fate? Well, I'm painting it black
Bridge
It's too dangerous to fall in love
But you can't hurt me now because
Chorus
I'm crossing my fingers behind my back
Blood on my hands from my latest attack
Tell you I love you, I'm no good at that
Can't see your fate? Well, I'm painting it black
Outro
I'm crossing my fingers behind my back
