You, with your words like knives
And swords and weapons that 你 use against me
你 have knocked me off my feet again
Got me feeling like I'm nothing
You, with your voice like nails on a chalkboard
Calling me out when I'm wounded
你 picking on the weaker man
你 can take me down with just one single blow
But 你 don't know, what 你 don't know...
Someday I'll be living in a big ol' city
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
Someday I'll be big enough so 你 can't hit me
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
Why 你 gotta be so mean?
You, with your switching sides
And your wildfire lies and your humiliation
你 have pointed out my flaws again
As if I don't already see them
I walk with my head down
Trying to block 你 out 'cause I'll never impress you
I just wanna feel okay again
I bet 你 got pushed around
Somebody made 你 cold
But the cycle ends right now
'Cause 你 can't lead me down that road
And 你 don't know, what 你 don't know...
Someday I'll be living in a big ol' city
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
Someday I'll be big enough so 你 can't hit me
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
Why 你 gotta be so mean?
And I can see 你 years from now in a bar
Talking over a football game
With that same big loud opinion
But nobody's listening
Washed up and ranting about the same old 苦 things
Drunk and grumbling on about how I can't sing
But all 你 are is mean
All 你 are is mean
And a liar, and pathetic, and alone in life
And mean, and mean, and mean, and mean
But someday I'll be living in a big ol' city
And all you're ever gonna be is mean, yeah
Someday I'll be big enough so 你 can't hit me
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
Why 你 gotta be so?..
Someday I'll be living in a big ol' city (Why 你 gotta be so?..)
And all you're ever gonna be is mean (Why 你 gotta be so?..)
Someday I'll be big enough so 你 can't hit me (Why 你 gotta be so?..)
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
Why 你 gotta be so mean?
And swords and weapons that 你 use against me
你 have knocked me off my feet again
Got me feeling like I'm nothing
You, with your voice like nails on a chalkboard
Calling me out when I'm wounded
你 picking on the weaker man
你 can take me down with just one single blow
But 你 don't know, what 你 don't know...
Someday I'll be living in a big ol' city
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
Someday I'll be big enough so 你 can't hit me
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
Why 你 gotta be so mean?
You, with your switching sides
And your wildfire lies and your humiliation

I'd never gone with the wind
Just let it flow
Let it take me where it wants to go to
你 open the door
There's so much more
I've never seen it before
Always trying to fly
But I couldn't find wings
But 你 came along and 你 changed everything
[Chorus:]
你 lift my feet off the ground
你 spin me around
你 make me crazier, crazier
Feels like I'm falling and I am 迷失 in your eyes
你 make me crazier, crazier, crazier
I've watched from a distance as 你 made life your own
Every sky was your own kind of blue
And I wanted to know how that would feel
And 你 made it so real
你 showed me something that I couldn't see
你 opened my eyes
And 你 made me believe
[Chorus]
Baby 你 showed me what living is for
I don't wanna hide anymore
Oh oh
你 lift my feet off the ground
你 spin me around
你 make me crazier, crazier
Feels like I'm fallin' and I am 迷失 in your eyes
你 make me crazier, crazier, crazier
Crazier, crazier, crazier
Just let it flow
Let it take me where it wants to go to
你 open the door
There's so much more
I've never seen it before
Always trying to fly
But I couldn't find wings
But 你 came along and 你 changed everything
[Chorus:]
你 lift my feet off the ground
你 spin me around
你 make me crazier, crazier
Feels like I'm falling and I am 迷失 in your eyes
你 make me crazier, crazier, crazier
I've watched from a distance as 你 made life your own
Every sky was your own kind of blue
And I wanted to know how that would feel
And 你 made it so real
你 showed me something that I couldn't see
你 opened my eyes
And 你 made me believe
[Chorus]
Baby 你 showed me what living is for
I don't wanna hide anymore
Oh oh
你 lift my feet off the ground
你 spin me around
你 make me crazier, crazier
Feels like I'm fallin' and I am 迷失 in your eyes
你 make me crazier, crazier, crazier
Crazier, crazier, crazier
Seems the only one who doesn't see your beauty
Is the face in the mirror looking back at you
你 walk around here thinking you're not pretty
But that's not true, cause I know you...
[Chorus:]
Hold on, baby, you're losing it
The water's high, you're jumping into it
And letting go... and no one knows
That 你 cry, but 你 don't tell anyone
That 你 might not be the golden one
And you're tied together with a smile
But you're coming undone
I guess it's true that 爱情 was all 你 wanted
Cause you're giving it away like it's extra change
Hoping it will end up in his pocket
But he leaves 你 out like a penny in the rain
Oh, cause it's not his price to pay
Not his price to pay...
[Repeat Chorus]
You're tied together with a smile
But you're coming undone... oh
Goodbye, baby
Goodbye, baby
With a smile, baby, baby
Is the face in the mirror looking back at you
你 walk around here thinking you're not pretty
But that's not true, cause I know you...
[Chorus:]
Hold on, baby, you're losing it
The water's high, you're jumping into it
And letting go... and no one knows
That 你 cry, but 你 don't tell anyone
That 你 might not be the golden one
And you're tied together with a smile
But you're coming undone
I guess it's true that 爱情 was all 你 wanted
Cause you're giving it away like it's extra change
Hoping it will end up in his pocket
But he leaves 你 out like a penny in the rain
Oh, cause it's not his price to pay
Not his price to pay...
[Repeat Chorus]
You're tied together with a smile
But you're coming undone... oh
Goodbye, baby
Goodbye, baby
With a smile, baby, baby
