The Neighbourhood – $TING lyrics
[Verse 1]
I tried to be someone
I lied to be someone else for you.
If I had done something a little bit differently
We would've moved in a better direction than this, baby
[Verse 2]
If you were human
If you were who I'd assumed you were
You wouldn't have done this, oh, no
I thought I did something
But she would do anything to bring me down
And she brought me down
[Chorus]
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
[Breakdown]
(Ah-ah) You say that you love me
But you act like you don't
(Ah-ah) You used to adore me
Laughed at all of my jokes
Don't take this the wrong way
You put me in harm's way
(Ah-ah) When we had our first kiss
It was your favorite thing
(Ah-ah) And you weren't lying
When you said it would sting
Don't take this the wrong way
You put me in harm's way
(Ah-ah) Imagine our children
How fucked would they be?
(Ah-ah) Mommy's a psycho
Daddy lives in a dream
Don't take this the wrong way, mhm, mhm, mhm
(Ah-ah) I told you I'm sorry
Couldn't thank you enough
(Ah-ah) I thought that I loved you
But we weren't in love
We weren't in love
You were my dream
The way that we fuck
[Outro]
You liked to think
We would push through the battle
Ignoring the problems
Just to hold what we had
Don't take this the wrong way
(Don't take this the wrong way)
I tried to be someone
I lied to be someone else for you.
If I had done something a little bit differently
We would've moved in a better direction than this, baby
[Verse 2]
If you were human
If you were who I'd assumed you were
You wouldn't have done this, oh, no
I thought I did something
But she would do anything to bring me down
And she brought me down
[Chorus]
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
[Breakdown]
(Ah-ah) You say that you love me
But you act like you don't
(Ah-ah) You used to adore me
Laughed at all of my jokes
Don't take this the wrong way
You put me in harm's way
(Ah-ah) When we had our first kiss
It was your favorite thing
(Ah-ah) And you weren't lying
When you said it would sting
Don't take this the wrong way
You put me in harm's way
(Ah-ah) Imagine our children
How fucked would they be?
(Ah-ah) Mommy's a psycho
Daddy lives in a dream
Don't take this the wrong way, mhm, mhm, mhm
(Ah-ah) I told you I'm sorry
Couldn't thank you enough
(Ah-ah) I thought that I loved you
But we weren't in love
We weren't in love
You were my dream
The way that we fuck
[Outro]
You liked to think
We would push through the battle
Ignoring the problems
Just to hold what we had
Don't take this the wrong way
(Don't take this the wrong way)
