lyrics
VERSE 1
And so your standing at my door, alone
Something tells me that you just left home,
It's fair to say you could not take his beatings anymore,
And now you're standing in my room, in tears,
Emotions ganging up in the reflection of your tears,
You're shaking like a leaf and you're stuck with the belief that he might have followed you here,
CHORUS
You'll always go, for the bad boys,
No you don't care, for no good guys,
You'd rather be, used by bad boys,
You'd rather be, be abused
VERSE 2
She has big bruises on her arms, by the bones,
Peppered with holes where the needles used to go,
The broken spirits for the love of a guy who is lower than fucking low
And so I tried to comfort you,
I said you can't go back but I know you always do,
And even if you don't you'll find another guy another looser you think is cool,
CHORUS
You'll always go, for the bad boys,
No you don't care, for no good guys,
You'd rather be, used by bad boys,
No you don't care, for no good guys,
You'd rather be, used by bad boys,
You'd rather be, be abused
