Bad News
Charlotte OC Lyrics

Stop giving me silence
Stop ignoring me and refusing to communicate with me

Used to love me for me
You used to accept me for who I am

And no man is an island
No one can survive alone; we all need to connect with others

But you're still so far away, I can't reach
You may be physically close, but emotionally, you are distant and unapproachable

I built you up on holy ground
I held you in a high regard and thought of you as someone special

So high, I couldn't get you down
You had such a high opinion of yourself that it was difficult for me to bring you down to reality

I'm missing what hindsight can force you to see
Looking back, there are things that are now clear to me that I couldn't see before

Oh, start sending me sideways
You are pushing me away, making me feel uncomfortable and unsure of myself

Into something that I don't wanna be
You are leading me towards a path I don't want to go down

We're both sad, we're both screwed
We are both unhappy and in a difficult situation

We're both bad, bad news
As a couple, we are toxic and destructive

This is just a catastrophe, oh no
Our relationship is a complete disaster

You leave then give me hope
You keep coming and going from my life, making me hopeful then disappointing me

You love me then you don't
Your feelings towards me are inconsistent

Screaming down the phone
Our arguments have become intense and aggressive over the phone

There's water
We are drowning in our problems and emotions

You drag me down below
You are pulling me into a negative and destructive state of mind

Screaming as we go
As we struggle through our problems, our voices become louder and more heated

Stop sending me flowers
You are using kind gestures to mask the bigger problems in our relationship

A bit too late for an epiphany
It is too late for a sudden realization to solve our problems

Oh ah, who's holding the power?
The balance of power in our relationship has shifted and I am now in control

Because it's not you anymore, it's me
I have given up on waiting for you to change and have decided to take control of the situation

We put in the hours
We have both invested a significant amount of time and effort into our relationship

But it took you just a second to leave
Despite our efforts, you were quick to leave and give up on our relationship

Yeah, we're both sad, we're both screwed
Our unhappiness and problems are shared equally

This is just a catastrophe, oh no
Our relationship has become a complete disaster

This is bad, bad news
Our situation is negative and destructive

We're both sad
We are both unhappy

Bad news
Our situation is negative and destructive
