The lyrics suggest that the narrator is placing a bet on someone, metaphorically gambling on their potential to change or be a positive influence in their life. The repetitive line "Betting on you" signifies the narrator's willingness to take a chance on this person despite their doubts and fears. The lyrics also imply that this person has betrayed the narrator in the past, as they plead for them to stop hurting them and promise to change. The phrase "Bad bad bad bet a bad bad girl" is repeated throughout the song, emphasizing the toxic nature of the relationship. The lyrics paint a picture of a manipulative and unpredictable partner who constantly keeps the narrator on edge. Despite the negative aspects of the relationship, the narrator is drawn to this person, possibly out of fear or a sense of familiarity. They express their vulnerability and insecurity, admitting that they are afraid of being manipulated and hurt again. The lyrics also suggest that the narrator feels trapped, as they can't seem to break free from this toxic cycle. Ultimately, the song portrays a sense of self-destructive behavior and the struggle to let go of a toxic relationship. The repeated chorus reinforces the idea that the narrator is stuck in a cycle of betting on someone who is ultimately "bad" for them, unable to break free from the allure of this person. Written by
