[Verse 1]
Got a boy back home in Michigan
And he tastes like Jack when I'm kissing him
So I told him that I never really liked his friends
Now he's gone and he's calling me a bitch again

[Pre-Chorus]
I believe, I believe, I believe, I believe that we're meant to be
But jealousy, jealousy, jealousy, jealousy get the best of me
Look

I know that you're afraid I'm gonna walk away
Each time the feeling fades
Each time the feeling fades (look)
I know that you're afraid I'm gonna walk away
Each time the feeling fades
Each time the feeling fades
I know that you're afraid I'm gonna walk away
(I don't mean to frustrate, but I)
(Always make the same mistakes, yeah)
Each time the feeling fades
(Always make the same mistakes, 'cause)
Each time the feeling fades
I know that you're afraid I'm gonna walk away
(Look, I don't mean to frustrate, but I)
(Always make the same mistakes, yeah)
(Always make the same mistakes 'cause)
(I'm bad at love)

[Drop]

[Verse 2]
Got a girl with California eyes
And I thought that she could really be the one this time
But I never got the chance to make her mine
Because she fell in love with little thin white lines
London girl with an attitude
We never told no one, but we look so cute
Both got way better things to do
But I always think about it when I'm riding through

[Pre-Chorus]
I believe, I believe, I believe, I believe that I'm in too deep
And jealousy, jealousy, jealousy, jealousy get the best in me
Look, I don't mean to frustrate, but I
Always make the same mistakes, yeah
Always make the same mistakes 'cause

I know that you're afraid I'm gonna walk away
Each time the feeling fades
Each time the feeling fades (look)
I know that you're afraid I'm gonna walk away
Each time the feeling fades
Each time the feeling fades
I know that you're afraid I'm gonna walk away
(I don't mean to frustrate, but I)
(Always make the same mistakes, yeah)
Each time the feeling fades
(Always make the same mistakes, 'cause)
Each time the feeling fades
I know that you're afraid I'm gonna walk away
(Look, I don't mean to frustrate, but I)
(Always make the same mistakes, yeah)
(Always make the same mistakes 'cause)
(I'm bad at love)

Both got way better things to do
But I always think about it when I'm riding through

[Outro]
(I'm bad love) yeah
(I'm bad love) yeah

Halsey is the stage name of New Jersey singer Ashley Nicolette Frangipane. It is an anagram of her first name and reference to the Halsey Street subway stop and street in Brooklyn where she used to live. The bio on her website

I am Halsey. I will never be anything but honest. I write songs about sex and being sad."

Halsey was diagnosed with bipolar disorder when she was 17. This has greatly influenced her creative process from the start of her career. Songs like “Control” and “Gasoline” explicitly delve into her psychological and emotional battles. Manic, Halsey’s third album and arguably her rawest and most emotionally vulnerable, was written in a fully manic state rather than a depressive one.
