[Bridge]

You were the b

est but you we

re the worst
   
As sick as it 

sounds, I love

d you first

I was a dick, 

it is what it 

is
  
A habit to kic

k the age-old 

curse

I tend to laug

h whenever I'm

 sad
  
I stare at the

 crash, it act

ually works

Making amends,

 this shit nev

er ends
    
I'm wrong agai

n, wrong again


[Chorus]
            
The way life g

oes
           
Joyriding down

     
 our road
             
Lay on the hor

             
n to prove tha

              
t it haunts me


   (I'm wrong 

again, wrong a

gain)
  
I love you, I'

m sorry
            
The way life g

oes (You were 

the best but y

ou were the wo

rst) (As sick 

as it sounds, 

I loved you fi

rst)
           
I wanna speak 

   
in code (I was

 a dick, it is

 what it is) (

A habit to kic

k, the age-old

 curse)
             
Hope that I do

             
n't, won't mak

            
e it about me 


(I tend to lau

gh whenever I'

m sad)
(I stare at the crash, it actually works)
  
I love you, I'

m sorry
