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
[PreChorus]
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
[Instrumental]
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
[PreChorus]
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
[PostChorus]
I'd be lying
I'd be lying
I'd be lying
I'd be lying
[PreChorus]
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
[PostChorus]
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
