[VERSE 1 – FEMALE RAP] I saw your message, left it sitting for a minute Told myself I wouldn't answer, then I went and did it It's a pattern, I can name it, I can see it coming But there's something in the way you talk that keeps me running Not the type to make excuses for the things I do I know exactly what I'm risking when I follow through Got a dozen different reasons I should walk away But I keep negotiating with myself to stay And it's getting kinda obvious How I turn a little moment into something dangerous I know the ending, know the damage, know the cost Still, I make another move like I forgot [REFRAIN – FEMALE VOCALS] I know better But I don't know why Every time I say it's over I come back another night [CHORUS – FEMALE VOCALS] Bad decisions, I keep making Even when I see them coming No excuses, no escaping I know what I'm getting into Maybe I should let it go But there's something I don't wanna lose Bad decisions, I admit it I knew better when I did it [VERSE 2 – FEMALE RAP] Okay, let's be honest, I don't need another lecture I can see the red flags, I don't need another gesture You say all the right things, but your actions tell a different story And I know this isn't leading anywhere close to something worthy Still, I let the night decide Let the hours slip, let the rules divide One more conversation, one more compromise Then I tell myself I'm fine, yeah, I tell myself I'm fine It's a strange kind of addiction Knowing all the facts but avoiding the conclusion I can make a clean exit, I can leave without a sound But the second that I turn away, I'm looking back around And I hate that I can recognize the problem Break it down, explain it, even write a whole damn column But awareness doesn't mean that I will always make it right Sometimes knowing isn't enough to keep me out of trouble tonight [REFRAIN – FEMALE VOCALS] I know better But I don't know why Every time I say it's over I come back another night [CHORUS – FEMALE VOCALS] Bad decisions, I keep making Even when I see them coming No excuses, no escaping I know what I'm getting into Maybe I should let it go But there's something I don't wanna lose Bad decisions, I admit it I knew better when I did it [BRIDGE – FEMALE VOCALS] Maybe I'm just chasing feelings That were never meant to stay Maybe I don't need a reason For the choices that I make When the morning finds me Will I see it differently? Or will I turn around And do it all again? [VERSE 3 – FEMALE RAP] Look, I could say I learned my lesson, but that wouldn't be the truth I still make impulsive choices, still got things I gotta prove To myself, not to the people who keep talking from the side They don't know what happens when the daylight leaves my mind I don't need to paint a picture where I'm innocent and flawless I've been both the one who leaves and the one who causes problems Sometimes I want the feeling, not the future that it promises Sometimes I see the consequences and proceed regardless [FINAL CHORUS – FEMALE VOCALS + LAYERED HARMONIES] Bad decisions, I keep making Even when I see them coming No excuses, no escaping I know what I'm getting into Maybe I should let it go But there's something I don't wanna lose Bad decisions, I admit it I knew better when I did it [OUTRO – SOFT FEMALE VOCALS] I know better I know better But somehow, I still do it Bad decisions...
