We were alone and I was singing this song for you You taught me precious secrets of the truth withholding nothing You came out in front and I was hiding But now I'm so much better and if my words don't come together Listen to the melody cause my love is

I'm looking right at the other half of me The vacancy that sat in my heart Is a space that now you hold Show me how to fight for now And I'll tell you, baby, it was easy Coming back into you once I figured it out You were right here all along It's like

Doing lines in the restroom Tell me why my exes besties now I was down for you At one point in my life Down for you Once upon a time You held me down Now you just holding me back Thinking pics gon' stress me out

But no flame burns forever, oh no You and I both know this all too well And most don't even last the night One last time Just one last time With the twilight No they don't, they say they don't Without holding back my mind Oh babe, meet me in Tompkins

Standing out in the rain Need to know if it's over Cause I would leave you alone Flooded with all this pain Knowing that I'll never hold her Like I did before the storm I know this isn't what I wanted I never thought it'd come this far Just thinking back

Wanna way out Ghetto walkin' (Ghetto walkin') Streets to find me (Streets to find me) Devil's watching (Devil's watching) They can't hold me down When I was young Nobody told me, don't fall for traps Good will hunt it Now I'm old, in this game

So crawl on my belly til the sun goes down I'll never wear your broken crown I took the road and I fucked it all the way Now in this twilight, how dare you speak of grace Touch my mouth And hold my tongue I'll never be your chosen one I'll be home,

And I know that there's something that's just out of sight I'm ready for more The feelin' now that I'm beside you We'll open the door Do anything that we decide to And I feel like I'm finally seeing the light Holdin' on girl I know it's right I know it's

Tear down these walls for me It's not too late for me Stop me from going under You are the only one who knows I'm holding back To keep from sinking further I'm trying to find my way out

Hold on, don't you say goodbye. I want you to tell me now before we lose forever. Girl, I don't want to lose you now. Times are hard, my spirit's weak, Ev'rything seems to be goin' wrong, the outlook's bleak. You know I fooled around, play'n' the field.
