[Verse 1]

Hold me down under the water

You know well that I can't swim

I'm not trying to be a martyr

Know that I won't let you in

Safe and warm inside myself

But you need more than someone else.

[Chorus]

You need space, you need time

You take yours and I'll take mine

Come closer so I can be the one to push

It's not me, it's just you

It doesn't mean shit when it falls through

Come closer so I can be the one to push you

The one to push.

[Verse 2]

Hold me tight enough to kill me

Bite my tongue so I can't speak

Clip my wings so I can't fly

Bury me deep but I won't die

Was it worth it?

Was it worth it?

[Chorus]

You need space, you need time

You take yours and I'll take mine

Come closer so I can be the one to push

It's not me, it's just you

It doesn't mean shit when it falls through

Come closer so I can be the one to push you (push you)

The one to push you (push you)

[Bridge]

Guess I needed you enough not to notice

Guess I wanted you enough to lie

There's so many faces, I should've known it

But that sure was a beautiful disguise.

[Chorus]

You need space, you need time

You take yours and I'll take mine

Come closer so I can be the one to push

It's not me, it's just you

It doesn't mean shit when it falls through

Come closer so I can be the one to push you (push you, yeah...)

The one to push you (push you)

The one to push you.

[Outro]

In our game with the pass

We may love and we attack

Let me hold you so you can be the one to push back.
