We've been running in place

The whole year's been one of those days

I know we're close to an edge

Oh, I don't wanna be blamed

I know you hate to cause to pain

I hope the silence will end.

Oh, and we hold onto this for whatever reason

Oh, and we're too far to fix it up.

I want to break this to you honestly

I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I'm afraid

I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I'm afraid

I know you're ready to move on from me

But you stay and you stay and you stay

And we wait and we wait till one of us caves.

Oh, till one of us caves

Oh...

Long game but none of us win

Afraid of shedding our skin

We keep on playing pretend

This fear's a rope on our wrists

These years of life that we've missed

Building a case in our heads.

Oh, and we hold onto this for whatever reason

Oh, and we're too far to fix it up.

I want to break this to you honestly

I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I'm afraid

I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I'm afraid

I know you're ready to move on from me

But you stay and you stay and you stay

And we wait and we wait till one of us caves.

Oh, till one of us caves

Oh, till one of us caves

Oh, till one of us caves

Oh...

Oh, and we hold onto this for whatever reason

No, and we're too far to fix it up.

I want to break this to you honestly

I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I'm afraid

I'm afraid, I'm afraid, I'm afraid

I know you're ready to move on from me

But you stay and you stay and you stay

And we wait and we wait till one of us caves.

Oh, till one of us caves

Oh, till one of us caves

Oh, till one of us caves

Oh, till one of us caves.
