Scratch the surface, if you're still afraid to dive 

Don't be nervous, we're two wrongs that make a right

Close the curtains, tell the world to stay outside

Be uncertain, let this all stay undefined

I hung a thousand pictures on the wall because I knew I'd need

A thousand words a thousand times to say all the things you mean to me 

('Cause we've found) a way to Eden but it's just the long way around

Found a hope that floated then we ran it aground

(So come down) I'm done chasing angels with my head in the clouds

Cause you're not that perfect but you're coming around

While I'm breaking you down

You can't be everything I need

I'm your danger, I'm what makes you come alive 

I'm your chaser when your chest is filled with fire

The exception to rules you swore were ironclad

I'm the best bad influence that you have ever had

Never the charming caricature, I'm the sand that's still between your toes

From when you left your high heels in the trunk and got ocean on your Sunday clothes  

('Cause we've found) a way to Eden but it's just the long way around

Found a hope that floated then we ran it aground

(So come down) I'm done chasing angels with my head in the clouds

Cause you're not that perfect but you're coming around

While I'm breaking you down

You can't be everything I need

Girl, I promise you when it's said and done

That there is nothing you could do to change this love

Robe and slippers, sipping coffee from behind

Picket fences, maybe somewhere down the line

But tonight there's a tree we haven't climbed

A back road we need to drive and a devil in your eyes 

('Cause we've found) a way to Eden but it's just the long way around

Found a hope that floated then we ran it aground

(So come down) I'm done chasing angels with my head in the clouds

Cause you're not that perfect but you're coming around

While I'm breaking you down

You can't be everything I need

But right now that's all I want to believe
