I've been bad to boys I love

Maybe I'm selfish, maybe I'm young

And my guilty Catholic heart tears my guilty self apart on the floor

But I wish that you did something bad so we could settle the score

Let me be the victim of your perfect crime

Bathe in my blood so I'm not the bad guy

I messed up so maybe mess up too

Really want the blame to be on you

So, drive the knife in deep

Make the victim me

Then I'll hear the yells and see the red and blue

It'll be in the headlines, all our friends will hate you

I know I didn't deserve you, but now, it's vice versa

You'll finally see how it tastes

'Cause hurting the one that you swore you'd protect is the worst kind of heartbreak

So, let me be the victim of your perfect crime

I'll kill your conscience like you killed mine

Yeah, I messed up so maybe mess up, too

Really want the blame to be on you

So, drive the knife in deep

And make the victim me

Me, oh...
