Gothic Babe Tendencies (feat. blackbear)

You have to wait for the drums to come in
 ♪
 I smoked my first cigarette, my cowboy killer
 With a few close friends, so cold, my hands went numb
 One girl, she talked about her boyfriend, like a god
 He had a dirty mouth, and we all ate it up
 And there's someone new I been seein'
 That shows me what I been missin'
 I never had that high school love
 But this tastes like sophomore year to me
 Got me learnin' all the words to his favorite songs
 But, I got gothic babe tendencies, I always choose the dark
 I avoid the pain and say, "This is just for fun"
 Hm, I got gothic babe tendencies, I always choose the dark
 But what if I surrendered to the sun?
 The woods back in my hometown and Friday night Blockbuster countdowns
 How I'd choose the long way home to pass the beach
 Wish you'd ask that kind of question
 The kind that digs for somethin' hidden
 But I'm not sure you'd like to know that side of me
 Then you text me from a nightclub, you're out tonight like I was
 Did you find a new plus one?
 Young Achilles, you got options
 Maybe I should just fuck off
 And let go (go, go, go, go) of the wheel for once
 But, I got gothic babe tendencies, I always choose the dark
 I avoid the pain and say, "This is just for fun"
 Hm, I got gothic babe tendencies, I always choose the dark
 But what if I surrendered to the sun?
 Uh-uh, yeah-yeah, we got matchin' scars
 The kind that you pick and scratch and they stay there for life
 You were in my arms
 I'm left with this lonely heart and movies in my mind
 Everythin' you said is messin' with my head
 I'm goin' crazy, I don't understand, but I can't just pretend
 You don't sedate me, maybe I feel like I don't deserve your love
 But you could save me from this self-sabotage
 I'm havin' panic attacks, now I need Alprazolam
 I'm havin' withdrawals, I don't know who I am
 I was never the same after I got sober from you
 Yeah
 Now it's over for you, and it's over for me
 Why do these words hurt so deeply?
 You were my favorite sunburn, I would like to save
 For another day
 But, I got gothic babe tendencies, I always choose the dark
 I avoid the pain and say, "This is just for fun"
 Hm, I got gothic babe tendencies, I always choose the dark
 But what if I surrendered to the sun?
 And I didn't run, run, run, run, run
 I didn't run, run, run, run, run
 And I didn't run, run, run, run, run (run)
 I didn't run, run, run, run, run
