Tempt My Trouble
Bishop Briggs Lyrics

Why you got it in for me?
Why do you hold a grudge against me?

Is it 'cause I bring it to your knees?
Do you hate me because I make you vulnerable?

Throw water on electricity
Create conflicts/drama for the purpose of entertainment.

Just to see if the spark will make us feel
To stir something within us and feel the thrill of it.

The way we used to feel
Reminisce about the past when things were more exciting.

You're my heart-taker
You have my heart in your hand.

I'm your heart-breaker
I break your heart.

And we're both fakers
We are not genuine with one another.

Faking always trade it to each other's arms
We pretend to be someone we're not to lure each other closer.

We know where we are
We both understand what this is.

Unchain my load
Set me free from my burdens.

But don't you ever let me go
But don't abandon me completely.

Lights go out again
We're back in the dark/uncertain again.

You stroke my pain
You know how to hurt me.

And tempt my trouble
You provoke me to misbehave/create chaos.

Sick how we pretend
It's twisted how we act like we're okay with all this.

But we're not friends
We don't have a healthy, genuine relationship.

And we're not lovers
But we're not just casual either.

We're just trouble
We're a recipe for disaster.

So tempt my trouble
So let's stir up some chaos and enjoy the thrill of it.

I keep on messing with your head
I keep playing mind games with you.

You keep on messing up my bed
You ruin my peace/cause discomfort.

I feel like we're two stoners, two loners
We're too zen and too much alike, which adds to the confusion.

Who keep on forgetting everything we said
We don't learn from our mistakes.

So why you gotta tempt my trouble?
Why are you provoking me to misbehave?

Oh
