I'll start pulling away
Until you fade from view
'Cause I'll be losing the trace
Of what I wanted to do
If you get any closer
I should probably warn you

I'll scream beating the ground
And bloody both of my knees
Swear I'll turn it around
But then the story repeats
If you get any closer
I should probably warn you

Just know that I will try to push you away
Just know that I might say
Say I don't need you but
Don't let me, don't let me
Lie and don't ever be afraid
'Cause I want you to make me stay
If I try to leave you
Don't let me, don't let me

I'm really good at the start
But never follow through
I'll give you all of my heart
Until it's going smooth
And then I get unsteady
And I start forgetting
Oh please don't let me

Just know that I will try to push you away
Just know that I might say
Say I don't need you but
Don't let me, don't let me
Lie and don't ever be afraid
'Cause I want you to make me stay
If I try to leave you
Don't let me, don't let me
Don't let me

And if I say that this is not where I belong
Don't let me listen to my sirens song
Just don't let me, don't let me
'Cause my eyes get fooled by what lives on the surface
I leave to look and find that nothing's worth it
Don't let me, don't let me

Just know that I will try to push you away
Just know that I might say
Say I don't need you but
Don't let me, don't let me
Lie and don't ever be afraid
'Cause I want you to make me stay
If I try to leave you
Don't let me, don't let me, oh
Don't let me
Don't let me, Don't let me
