It's been so damn hard to move
And that ends the way it starts with you
And I wouldn't call it overthinking
'Cause I've thought it over, and I know the feeling
Who would've thought that a "Hello, nice to meet ya"
Is how you throw your life away
I dunno when or where we made this change
But if we stay the same, then every other day
We'll be blasting off again, team rocket
Collision course and nothing's gonna stop it
I don't like the way I think that this'll end
Come to think, I've never had to deal with so much out of pocket
Throw the key, but not before I lock it
Need to take a breather every now and then
I can't pretend I've got somewhere else to go
Baby, let me crawl into your skin
Night falls onto every inch
I collapse, I wanna dive right in
And night passes just where you begin
Aye, where you going? Where the party at?
Lights shining all around you
Would we know this is all we have?
If the light never found you
Where you going? Where the party at?
Lights shining all around you
Would we know this is all we have?
If the light had never found you
Uh, I got a bad situation
Calling on my phone, tryna hash complications
This has been the same too long, too long
Sick of tryna right your wrongs, I'm done
I don't wanna remember this time, I feel impatient
I don't wanna leave you and cry, I'm on a pavement
Stuck inside this never ending
From the beginning wish the truth was more clear
If I can drive those tears out, fears out, too real
Every time you're near now it kills
Everything inside of me that lets you go will let me breathe
Pull the fears out, too real
Every time you're near now it kills
Everything inside of me, I want some peace, a remedy
Baby, let me crawl into your skin
Night falls onto every inch
I collapse, I wanna dive right in
And night passes just where you begin
Aye, where you going? Where the party at?
Lights shining all around you
Would we know this is all we have?
If the light never found you
Where you going? Where the party at?
Lights shining all around you
Would we know this is all we have?
If the light never found you
Where you going? Where the party at?
Lights shining all around you
Would we know this is all we have?
If the-the light never found you
Where you going? Where the party at?
Lights shining all around you
Would we know this is all we have?
If the light never found you
