Didn’t think you had it in you
Didn’t think you looked the part
You kept it hidden
In your bitter heart

Never cared for consequences
Didn’t think you’d pay the price
Till there was nothing left
To sacrifice

Now I’m running out sympathy
And you’re running out of lies

Desperate times call for desperate measures
Had to do what I had to do
Knew this love wouldn’t last forever
After all that you put me through

So don’t say you’re sorry
‘Cause I know the truth
That desperate times call for desperate measures
As desperate as you

Should have known you’d burn my heart out
Let it all go up in flames
I watched the smoke clear as you walked away

You never cared for consequences
Didn’t think you’d pay the price
And in the end it wasn’t worth the fight

Now I’m running out of sympathy
And you’re running out of lies

Desperate times call for desperate measures
Had to do what I had to do
Knew this love wouldn’t last forever
After all that you put me through

So don’t say you’re sorry
‘Cause I know the truth
That desperate times call for desperate measures
As desperate as you

As desperate as you

You’re running out of ways
To save yourself tonight
I’m running out of reasons not to
Leave it all behind

Desperate times call for desperate measures
Had to do what I had to do
I know this love wouldn’t last forever
After all that you put me through

So don’t say you’re sorry
‘Cause I know the truth
That desperate times call for desperate measures
As desperate as you

Desperate times call for desperate measures
As desperate as you
Desperate times call for desperate measures
As desperate as you
