Blame it on my parents
Blame it on my past
Blame it on the shadow
All of my exes cast
You can call it my fear and insecurity
I'm just trying to rescue you from saving me

I don't want your love, dangerous
I don't want your love, it's dangerous
Only time will tell
When you'll become yourself

I know what you're doing
And what happens from now on
You'll make me a project
I won't change and you'll be gone
You can call it my fear and insecurity
I'm just trying to leave you before you leave me

I don't want your love, it's dangerous
I don't want your love, it's dangerous
Only time will tell
Till you'll become yourself
And I'll be left up on the shelf like everybody else

I see your good intentions
But I'm walking the other direction
Cuz I don't need the hurt again
I'm thinking this'll never end
So I'm never gonna let you in
Cuz I don't need the hurt again

I don't want your love, it's dangerous
I don't want your love, it's dangerous
Only time will tell
Till you'll become yourself

And I'll be left up on the shelf like
And I'll be left up on the shelf like
I'll be left up on the shelf like
Everybody else
