I Knew You Were Trouble
We Came As Romans Lyrics

Once upon time
At some point in the past

A few mistakes ago
Before some errors and misjudgments

I was in your sights
You noticed me, had your attention

You got me alone
You separated me and made me vulnerable

You found me
You located me

You found me
You located me

You found me-e-e-e-e-e
You located me (repeated for emphasis)

I guess you didn't care
You probably didn't have any regard for me

And I guess I liked that
Maybe I was attracted to that behavior

And when I fell hard
When I became deeply invested and committed

You took a step back
You distanced yourself from me

Without me, without me, without me-e-e-e-e-e
You moved on without me (repeated for emphasis)

And she's long gone
The person who caused my downfall is no longer around

When she's next to me
Even though I'm with someone else

And I realize the blame is on me
I accept fault for what has happened

'Cause I knew you were trouble when you walked in
I recognized that you were bad news from the start

So shame on me now
I regret my decisions and actions

I flew me to places I'd never been
You took me on an emotional journey

Till you put me down, oh
Until you hurt me and ended our relationship

No apologies
You don't express any remorse

She'll never see you cry
The person who hurt me won't show any vulnerability

Pretend she doesn't know
She'll act like she doesn't understand what's going on

That she's the reason why
She's responsible for the pain and hurt

You're drowning, you're drowning, you're drowning-g-g-g-g
You're struggling and overwhelmed (repeated for emphasis)

And I heard you moved on
I found out that you've moved on with your life

From whispers on the street
Through rumors and gossip

A new notch in your belt
You've added another conquest

Is all I'll ever be
To you, I was just an accomplishment

And now I see, now I see, now I see-e-e-e-e-e
I finally understand (repeated for emphasis)

She was long gone
The person who hurt me was already gone

When she met me
Before our paths crossed

And I realize the joke is on me, yeah
I'm the one who was played and fooled

And the saddest fear comes creeping in
My biggest worry gradually takes over

That you never loved me
You never had genuine feelings for me

Or him or anyone or anything
You never truly loved anyone or anything

Yeah
Yes

Trouble, trouble, trouble
A constant source of problems and stress

I knew you were trouble when you walked in
I recognized the issues were going to arise from the beginning

Trouble, trouble, trouble
A constant source of problems and stress

I knew you were trouble when you walked in
I recognized the issues were going to arise from the beginning

Trouble, trouble, trouble
A constant source of problems and stress

I knew you were trouble when you walked in
I recognized the issues were going to arise from the beginning
