I said I'd go home early
I lied to myself again
Red flags look pink at midnight
When the music's my best friend

I know better
But I don't care

Bad idea, again
But damn, I missed the thrill
I don't learn, I just live
And I like it still
Bad idea, again
Kiss me like it's wrong
If this ends in flames
At least we burn strong

Heart says stop, hips say go
I trust the part that steals the show
Every rule I almost kept
Is a regret I never met

I don't want safe
I want real

Bad idea, again
I'd do it all twice
Some lessons aren't learned
They're lived every night
