Mess It Up lyrics

This is your warning, this is your heads-up

I start fires in the morning before you get up

It's not like I want to, wanna drive you away

And it’s not that I need to, but I want you to stay

And you're not the only one

You're not the first one I say this to

You could be kicking and screaming

And trying to tell me it’s not true

But I promise you

I'm gonna mess it up

Gonna light the fire, watch it burning up

I'm gonna mess it up

Gonna light the fire, watch it burning up

I'm never gonna change, not gonna grow up

I'm gonna light the fire, watch it burning up, burning up

I swear that I'm trying, I'm giving all I got

Can't say I came without a warning, still you took your shot

So what if I want you, I’m only gonna drive you away

So what if I need you and I want you to stay?

And you’re not the only one

You're not the first one I say this to

You could be kicking and screaming

And trying to tell me it’s not true

But I promise you

I'm gonna mess it up

I'm gonna light the fire, watch it burning up

I'm never gonna change, not gonna grow up

I’m gonna light the fire, watch it burning up, burning up

I'm never gonna change

You should know by now

Never gonna change

I'm never gonna change

You should know by now

Never gonna change

'Cause I will mess it up

Gonna light the fire, watch it burning up

I'm gonna mess it up

I'm gonna light the fire, watch it burning up

I'm never gonna change, not gonna grow up

I'm gonna light the fire, watch it burning up, burning up

I'm gonna mess it up

I'm gonna light the fire, watch it burning up

I'm never gonna change, not gonna grow up

I'm gonna light the fire, watch it burning up, burning up
