Lyrics

[Verse 1] Are you listening to some hot talk? Are you hanging on the deadline? Yelling the quiet part out loud And the words don't rhyme I'd be lying if I told you That I never felt the same desire Patching the cracks When it seems easier to set your own house on fire [Pre-Chorus] And it won't be the first time And it won't be the last I'll be waiting with my eyes closed 'Til the dice are cast [Chorus] Come down, come down You're gonna hurt yourself Come down, come down, come down, come down You're going to hurt yourself [Verse 2] I been watching for a long time And thought I measure if I'm far away I've never seen you with your eyes so black And your mind so afraid It's just a manic execution A display of elegance and spades A lonely revolution Pirouetting on the edge of a razor blade [Pre-Chorus] And it won't be the first time And it won't be the last Like you're sailing through the tempest With a broken mast [Chorus] Come down, come down You're going to hurt yourself Come down, come down, come down, come down You're going to hurt yourself [Post-Chorus] I'd be lying I'd be lying I'd be lying I'd be lying [Instrumental Bridge] [Pre-Chorus] It won't be the first time And it won't be the last I'll be waiting with my eyes closed 'Til the dice are cast [Chorus] Come down, come down You're going to hurt yourself Come down, come down, come down, come down You're going to hurt yourself [Post-Chorus] I'd be lying I'd be lying I'd be lying I'd be lying I'd be lying I'd be lying I'd be lying I'd be lying
