## Tekst

**[Intro]**
Can we just be honest?

These are the requirements

If you think you can be my one and only true love

You must promise to love me

And damn it, if you fuck me over

I will rip your fucking face apart

**[Verse 1]**

Step one

You must accept that I'm a little out my mind

Step two

This is a waste if you can't walk me down the finish line

Step three

Give me passion, don't make fun of my fashion

Step four

Give me more, give me more, more

**[Pre-Chorus]**

If you can't handle a heart like mine

Don't waste your time with me

If you're not down to bleed, no, oh

If you can't handle the choking, the biting

The loving, the smothering

'Til you can't handle it no more, no more

Go home

**[Chorus]**

Can we just be honest?

These are the requirements

If you think you can be my one and only true love

You must promise to love me

And damn it, if you fuck me over

I will rip your fucking face apart

**[Hook]**

High school sweethearts, line up

Not trying to waste my time

High school sweethearts, shut up

If you're not my type

High school sweethearts, line up

Not trying to waste my time

High school sweethearts, shut up

If you're not my type

**[Verse 2]**

Step five

You can't be scared to show me off and hold my hand

Step six

If you can't put in work, I don't know what you think this fucking is

Step seven, this one goes to eleven

If you cheat, you will die, die

**[Pre-Chorus]**

If you can't handle a heart like mine

Don't waste your time with me

If you're not down to bleed, no, oh

If you can't handle the choking, the biting

The loving, the smothering

'Til you can't handle it no more, no more

Go home

**[Chorus]**

Can we just be honest?

These are the requirements

If you think you can be my one and only true love

You must promise to love me

And damn it, if you fuck me over

I will rip your fucking face apart

**[Hook]**

High school sweethearts, line up

Not trying to waste my time

High school sweethearts, shut up

If you're not my type

High school sweethearts, line up

Not trying to waste my time

High school sweethearts, shut up

If you're not my type

**[Bridge]**

Could you hold me through the night?

Put your lips all over my

Salty face when I start crying

Could you be my first time?

Eat me up like apple pie

Make me not wanna die

Love me rough and let me fly

Get me up, yeah, get me high

Tie me down, don't leave my side

Don't be a waste of my time

**[Chorus]**

Can we just be honest?

These are the requirements

If you think you can be my one and only true love

You must promise to love me

And damn it, if you fuck me over

I will rip your fucking face apart

**[Hook]**

High school sweethearts, line up

Not trying to waste my time

High school sweethearts, shut up

If you're not my type

High school sweethearts, line up

Not trying to waste my time

High school sweethearts, shut up

If you're not my type

## Znaczenie

Cry Baby chce kochanka, który jest z nią szczery i naprawdę ją kocha, między innymi. Nie chce tylko romansu, chce mieć długotrwały związek z kimś, kto jest jej oddany i akceptuje ją taką, jaką naprawdę jest. W pewnym momencie Cry Baby grozi, że zabije swojego potencjalnego partnera, jeśli kiedykolwiek ją zdradzi, co jest prawdopodobnie odniesieniem do *Sippy Cup*, piosenki z debiutanckiego albumu Cry Baby, kiedy jej matka zamordowała jej ojca i jego kochankę, lub do piosenki *Dead to me*.
