Bad news travels fast But I don't want my mom to know this I'm scared she will ask 'Cause she hasn't heard from you yet But I don't wanna tell her I'm emotionally damaged By the fact you made the choice to leave 'Cause she's your biggest fan And I don't want her dream to end She was sure you were the one for me But if I tell her the truth She'll probably hate you too And attempt to burn your house down Can't even say it to myself You're in love with someone else I deny it with a fake smile Not ready for sleepless nights Where I cry on your side of the bed Like an emotional wreck But if I tell her the truth She'll probably hate you too And will treat you like a criminal I need more time Just to process what I'm feeling Not to start about my mom 'Cause she'd be devastated knowing you're gone But I don't wanna tell her I'm emotionally damaged By the fact you made the choice to leave 'Cause she's your biggest fan And I don't want her dream to end She was sure you were the one for me But if I tell her the truth She'll probably hate you too And attempt to burn your house down Can't even say it to myself You're in love with someone else I deny it with a fake smile Not ready for sleepless nights Where I cry on your side of the bed Like an emotional wreck But if I tell her the truth She'll probably hate you too And will treat you like a criminal
