Well, it's always gotta work out for you, doesn't it
Everything's just got to be fine
When you see your old boyfriends on the street
They all say hello and you're so sweet

Well, it ain't going to be like that this time
'Cause I'm crashin' and I'm burnin'
I'm going down in flames
I'm crashin' and I'm burnin'
And you're watching me
You're just watching me

And you like to talk about honesty
Like you just invented the word
'Til all your silly lies are left
Just spilling from your eyes
And I don't believe a single thing I hear

'Cause I'm crashin' and I'm burnin'
I'm going down in flames
I'm crashin' and I'm burnin'
And you're watching me
You're just watching me

Don't tell me that you're sorry
Don't tell me that I'm wrong
'Cause this is your favourite story
You've known it along
And I'm crashin' and I'm burnin'

I'm going down in flames
I'm crashin' and I'm burnin'
And you're watching me
You're just watching me
