Lyrics

Violence

I am, like, begging for you, baby
Makes you wanna party, wanna break up
Baby, it's violence, violence
Baby, it's violence

You can't see what I see
You can't see what I see
'Cause you, ha-ha
You feed off hurting me, hurting me, ha

I am, like, begging for you, baby
Makes you wanna party, wanna wake up
Baby, it's violence, violence
Baby, it's violence

You can't see what I see
You can't see what I see
'Cause you, ha-ha
You feed on hurting me, off hurting me, oh, ha

You wanna make me bad, make me bad
And I like it like that, and I like it like that
You wanna make me bad, pay me back
Said I like it like that, said I like it like that

I am, like, begging for you, baby
Makes you wanna party, wanna wake up
Baby, it's violence, violence
Baby, it's violence

But you can't see what I see
You can't see what I see
'Cause you, ha-ha
You feed off hurting me, off hurting me, oh, me, oh, me

You wanna make me bad, make me bad
And I like it like that, and I like it like that
You wanna paint me bad, pay me back
Said I like it like that, said I like it like that

You wanna make me bad, make me bad
And I like it like that, and I like it like that
You wanna paint me bad, pay me back
Said I like it like that, said I like it like that

You wanna make me, make me, make me, make me, make me
And I like it like that, and I like it like that
You wanna pay me, pay me, pay me back, pay me back
Said I like it like that, said I like it like that

And I like it like that, and I like it like that
And I like it like that
