Carved our initials on a bathroom wall
So we could last forever
All that's left is a crossed out heart
We paid the price for pleasure

It took a minute to know
Another hour to care
And just a day to love you
It took a year to stay but baby it’s gonna take
A lifetime to live without you

You, you’re like a bad tattoo
Can't get you out my skin no I matter what I do
You, you’re like a bad tattoo
Can't let you go if it means that I have to lose
You’re like a bad tattoo
You’re like a bad tattoo

Usually the memories they disappear
But I bought a broken record
Everyday I see your face it’s crystal clear
Though all our ties were severed

It took a minute to know
Another hour alone
And just a day to leave you
It took a year to forget the girl I was when we met
But now I'm ready to live without you

You, you’re like a bad tattoo
Can't get you out my skin no I matter what I do
You, you’re like a bad tattoo
Can't let you go if it means that I have to lose
You’re like a bad tattoo
You’re like a bad tattoo
You’re like a bad tattoo
You’re like a bad tattoo
