Lyrics of Break Up Every Night
She wants to break up every night
She wants to break up every night
Don't wanna wait until she finally decides to feel it
She wants to break up every night
Then tries to fuck me back to life
I cannot help it if I like the way she makes me feel it
"Give me time, give me space, give me reason"
That's what you tell me when you're leaving
Change your mind every night like the seasons
You're insatiable
And I know you say you want it now (want it now)
Give me the runaround (runaround)
Which one am I with now
She's got seven personalities, everyone's a tragedy
She wants to break up every night
She wants to break up every night
Don't wanna wait until she finally decides to feel it
She wants to break up every night
Then tries to fuck me back to life
I cannot help it if I like the way she makes me feel it
Been to France one time and you're Parisian
Joined the real world, new season
Check my phone, check my pulse, ain't a reason
I kinda love it though
And I know you say you leave me now (leave me now)
Give me the runaround (runaround)
Which one am I with now
She's got seven personalities, every one's a tragedy
She wants to break up every night
She wants to break up every night
Don't wanna wait until she finally decides to feel it
She wants to break up every night
Then tries to fuck me back to life
I cannot help it if I like the way she makes me feel it
She wants to break up every night
She wants to break up every night
Don't wanna wait until she finally decides to feel it
So I build bridges up, the bridges up
Build the bridges up again
Build bridges up, the bridges up
Build the bridges up again
Build bridges up, the bridges up
Build the bridges up again, oh
She wants to break up every night
She wants to break up every night
Don't wanna wait until she finally decides to feel it
She wants to break up every night
Then tries to fuck me back to life
I cannot help it if I like the way she makes me feel it
