Bad Tattoo

Wasn't thinking of leaving
Then cut it off on a whim with no reason
And gave you nothing else to heal the wounds but time
Don't know what I was thinking
Looking back, guess I bet on the feeling
I'd get a second chance if I changed my mind

But you don't miss the breeze 'til it's hot
And you don't know it's good 'til it's gone
Don't wanna find your way 'til you're lost

Now I wish I could do it over 'cause I want you
But you finally found your closure in someone new
I traded love for pleasure like a fool
And that's stuck with me forever like a bad tattoo

I know I can't get a rewind
Gotta settle for the fact that in your eyes
I'm just the guy that put you through hell
If you could see it from my side
I hope to God you'd be satisfied
That I spend my time hating myself

'Cause you don't miss the breeze 'til it's hot
And you don't know it's good 'til it's gone
Don't wanna find your way 'til you're lost

Now I wish I could do it over 'cause I want you
But you finally found your closure in someone new
I traded love for pleasure like a fool
And that's stuck with me forever
Yeah, that's stuck with me forever like a bad tattoo
Like a bad tattoo
