Lyrics

[Intro] (Go-go-go-go-down-go-go-go-go-go-go) (Go-go-go-go-down-go-go-go-go-go-go) [Verse 1] No more excuses and no more playing dead There are no silver linings in anything you said You could keep on denying and I could stay away We could hold up our hands, say we don't want it, we don't need it [Chorus] If I give more than enough ground, will you claim it? I will take it all in one breath and hold it down And if I try to pretend that I don't hear it You can tell me to move and I won't go You can tell me to try and I won't go If I give more than enough ground, will you leave it? I will take it all in one breath and hold it down And if I try to pretend that I don't see it You can tell me to move and I won't go You can tell me to try and I won't go [Post-Chorus] (Go-go-go-go-down-go-go-go-go-go) [Verse 2] No more distractions and no more staying still I am chasing the skyline much more than you ever will You could keep to your story and I could stick to mine We could hold up our hands, say we don't want it, we don't need it [Chorus] If I give more than enough ground, will you claim it? I will take it all in one breath and hold it down And if I try to pretend that I don't hear it You can tell me to move and I won't go You can tell me to try and I won't go If I give more than enough ground, will you leave it? I will take it all in one breath and hold it down And if I try to pretend that I don't see it You can tell me to move and I won't go You can tell me to try and I won't go [Bridge] (Go-go-go-go-down-go-go-go-go-go) (Go-go-go-go-down-go-go-go-go-go) (Go-go-go-go-down-go-go-go-go-go) (Go-go-go-go-down-go-go-go-go-go) [Chorus] If I give more than enough ground, will you claim it? I will take it all in one breath and hold it down And if I try to pretend that I don't hear it You can tell me to move and I won't go You can tell me to try and I won't go If I give more than enough ground, will you leave it? I will take it all in one breath and hold it down And if I try to pretend that I don't see it You can tell me to move and I won't go You can tell me to try and I won't go [Outro] (Go-go-go-go-down-go-go-go-go-go-go) (Go-go-go-go-down-go-go-go-go-go-go)
