## Lyrics

**Lyrics**
[Intro]

Uh

[Verse 1]

Rope around my neck, finna jump, ain't stressin' no more

Jump, jump, jump in

Hate me but you hurt me, so I'll say that I don't love you no more

Sad, sad, let down

Higher, I am, layin' in the clouds where I like to be

I know you're mad

But only at yourself 'cause it wasn't me

[Pre-Chorus]

You keep lovin' yourself, keep lovin' yourself

'Cause you never can love somebody else

[Chorus]

Live fast, die numb

Is all I ever wanted to be

Sharp teeth, sharp tongue

Is the only way you're treating me

I'm wasted, I'm drinking, I'm blacking out

This road that I'm taking, no backing down

Live fast, die numb

Is all I ever wanted to be

[Verse 2]

I hate to love you now

I hate the feeling that I get when you come around

It's funny that you really thought that you could hold me down

You say you love me then you turn my world upside down

The only person that can hold me is me (Uh)

I bet you hate it now

Even though you really thought you had me figured out

Turns out that I've been better off alone without you, oh

I've been better alone (Oh)

[Pre-Chorus]

You keep lovin' yourself, keep lovin' yourself

'Cause you never can love somebody else

I keep hating myself, keep hating myself

'Cause I never could love somebody else

[Chorus]

Live fast, die numb

Is all I ever wanted to be

Sharp teeth, sharp tongue

Is the only way you're treating me (Yeah)

I'm wasted, I'm drinking, I'm blacking out

This road that I'm taking, no backing down

Live fast, die numb

Is all I ever wanted to be

[Outro]

Ooh, ooh, ooh (Yeah)

Is all I ever wanted to be

Ooh, ooh, ooh (Yeah)

Is all I ever wanted to be

Live fast, die numb

Is all I ever wanted to be
