I would rather die than be a loner
In a world that swallows us, never lifts me up
And always fucks me up, yeah
Hey
♪
And when I hold my breath (hold my breath)
As I'm sinking lower (lower)
Everything's so far from luck, still breaks me up
It always fucks me up (fucks me up)
And when I close my eyes and count to ten
I start to realize it's not the end
For you and me, you and me
Bound through misery, misery
And when I hear you cry, I understand
It's not just me who tries to play pretend
Then you and me, you and me
We're never totally in misery
I was too afraid to let go
Too afraid to stand tall
But I'm too close to let it go, I'm too close to let it go
Reflections in the window 'bout to escape the sideshow
'Cause we're too close to let it go, we're too close to let it go
And we won't back down
And no, we won't back down
When I'm wasting time thinking of the old me
I get so swallowed up, and feel misunderstood, not even half as good
'Cause when I close my eyes and count to ten
I start to realize it's not the end
For you and me, you and me
Bound through misery, misery
And when I hear you cry I understand
That it's not me who needs a helping hand
To pull you and me, you and me out of misery, misery
Are you too afraid to let go?
Too afraid to stand tall?
But you're too close to let it go
You're too close to let it go
Reflections in the window 'bout to escape the sideshow
'Cause we're too close to let it go, we're too close to let it go
And we won't back down
♪
I know you, I feel you, I know what's deep inside of you
Black and blue, all brand-new
You have to fight your way through
