You said it was gonna be different this time I was on the road, I swore I'd find Was gonna be the girl that always knew I’d be But I burned too hot, too fast, too bright A falling star bound to lose its shine I'm right back where I said I wouldn't be Stick around then you will see I’m just treading water Trying not to drown While you're standing on the edge With both feet on the ground If you only knew How far you'd have to fall Then baby you wouldn't want me at all Took my hand, said it's okay We're all messed up in our own way There's room enough for two here in the dark But I don't think you really get How often I’m a losing bet I’m gonna wreck it all and watch it fall apart Stick around and you will see I'm just treading water Trying not to drown While you’re standing on the edge With both feet on the ground If you only knew How far you'd have to fall Then baby you wouldn't want me at all
