excuse

i want you to drag this out

'til i become the type of girl boys write songs about

then we can use this as an excuse

to not put the next through what we've been through

you want me to take this slow

'til you become the type of boy girls think are a big joke

then we can use this as an excuse

to not follow through and do what we want to do

if i don't destroy you,

you'll destroy me first

if you don't hurt me,

i will hurt you worse

what kind of game is it

if i let you win

and you would be foolish

if you let me in

i want you to say these words

and where this mask

'til i become the kind of girl boys don't have to ask

then we'll use this as an excuse

to continue this abuse

and put the next through what we've been through
