Lyrics
You held my hand
like a live grenade
Pulled that smile
then you walked away
Said I’m “too much”
yeah, that’s your line
But you burned my stuff
kept the bottle of wine
Traitor
sing it loud, spit it out
You kiss like a threat
and you lie like a prayer
Traitor
take a bow, rot in style
You’re the car crash
I won’t slow down to share
You fake your tears
like a TV cop
Swear you’ll change
when the cameras stop
Call me crazy
then you steal my friends
Throw your pity party
’til the credit card bends
Traitor
cheap thrill, bad script
Your heart’s just a room
with the furniture flipped
Traitor
sing it wrong, sing it proud
You’re a dead ringtone
in a too-loud crowd
Hope your bed
eats you whole
Hope your phone dies
right mid-scroll
Hope your mirror
shows my face
when you’re smearing
on your grace
Traitor
every “sorry” is a joke
May your every new fling
smell like my old smoke
Traitor
this is our love song’s end
You’re my favorite mistake
I won’t make again
