It’s not the same game
Now you’re really down
You try to keep safe again
Turn your life around
She told you to be better
She told you to be someone
You looked away tried to linger
And required to be alone
She told you to be angry
She told you to be calm
You ran away when you saw the fire
Drifted away from your own home
It’s not the same game
Now you’re really down
You try to keep safe again
Turn your life around
Songs ring out inside his walls
Feels like a stranger in his house
A day among the unknown
Just tryin’ to be the perfect spouse
You’re not the same boy
Now you feel the pressure
You’re not overjoyed
But you deal with censure
She told you to be better
She told you to be someone
You looked away tried to linger
And required to be alone
She told you to be angry
She told you to be calm
You ran away when you saw the fire
Drifted away from your own home

I haven’t slept for days,
I got you on my mind,
Block the sun with these shades,
That I hide behind,
Yeah, I’m on the right path,
But you’re leading me astray,
Sure, I try to hide it,
But you’re too good at bringing out the bad in me.

Bringing out the bad in me,
Bringing out the bad in me,
Bringing out the bad in me,
Yeah, you’re too good at bringing out the bad in me.

Thought I was free from these chains,
But I’m back to old ways,
It runs deep in my veins,
And leaves a bitter taste,
Yeah, I’m the boss man,
But who’s the boss of me?
I used to call the shots,
But you’re too good at bringing out the bad in me.

Bringing out the bad in me,
Bringing out the bad in me,
Bringing out the bad in me,

Yeah you’re too good at bringing out the bad in me
