Young Disaster

[Verse 1] I’ve got cigarette burns on borrowed sleeves Three missed calls and somewhere to be Another bad night I’ll romanticize Another pretty boy with dangerous eyes Mom says I’m running out of second chances Dad says someday I’ll understand But I’ve never been good at slow romances Or letting go when I probably can [Pre-Hook] I know the warning signs by heart Still drive straight through every one Maybe I’m scared of falling apart So I make sure I’m already undone [Hook] I’m a young disaster Running way too fast Falling for the wrong boys Like I want the hurt to last I’m a young disaster Pretty little wreck Heart hanging from my sleeve And trouble around my neck I know better I just never act like I do Baby, I’m a young disaster And somehow I still want you [Verse 2] You found me laughing in the pouring rain Said, “You always make a joke out of pain” I said, “Maybe that’s how I stay alive” You said, “Maybe you don’t always have to survive” That hit harder than I let you know So naturally I kissed you instead You smiled like you’d already figured me out While I was still lying to myself in my head [Pre-Hook] You see the cracks beneath the charm The panic underneath the fun And somehow every time I run You’re still there when I’m done [Hook] I’m a young disaster Running way too fast Falling for the wrong boys Like I want the hurt to last I’m a young disaster Pretty little wreck Heart hanging from my sleeve And trouble around my neck I know better I just never act like I do Baby, I’m a young disaster And somehow I still want you [Bridge] I’ve broken phones I’ve broken hearts I’ve driven home beneath the stars Swore I’d change Then changed my mind Left half my better judgment behind But you don’t look at me like damage You don’t treat me like a phase You just kiss me in the kitchen While I’m trying to push you away And maybe that’s the scariest part You make me wanna stay [Breakdown] No more running No more jokes No more hiding in the smoke If you want me Here I am Mess and all Take my hand [Final Hook] I’m a young disaster But I’m learning how to slow Maybe loving someone doesn’t mean You have to let them go Still a young disaster Still a beautiful wreck Still got my heart on my sleeve And trouble around my neck But if growing up means choosing Who I wanna become Maybe I’ll stay reckless Just not when it comes to us [Outro] I’m still a disaster Just maybe Not yours to clean up.
