[Chorus]
Am
Can we just be honest?
Em
These are the requirements
Dm
If you think you can be my one and only true love
Am
You must promise to love me
Em
And damn it, if you fuck me over
Dm Am
I will rip your fucking face apart
[Verse 1]
Am
Step one
Em
You must accept that I'm a little out my mind
Dm
Step two

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

Give me more, give me more, more
[Pre-Chorus]
Am
If you can't handle a heart like mine
Em
Don't waste your time with me
Dm
If you're not down to bleed, no, oh
Am
If you can't handle the choking, the biting
Em
The loving, the smothering
Dm
'Til you can't handle it no more, no more
N.C.
Go home

If you cheat, you will die, die
