Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm on the verge, I'm on the verge
Unraveling with every word
With every word you say, make me believe
That I won't feel your tires on the street
[PreChorus]
As I'm finding the words
You're getting away
[Verse 2]
I come undone, oh yes, I do
Just think of all the thoughts wasted on you
And every word you say, say something sweet
'Cause all I taste is blood between my teeth
[PreChorus]
As I'm finding the words
You're getting away
[Chorus]
Well, I'm ready
I'm ready to drop, oh-oh-oh-oh
Well, I'm ready
I'm ready, so don't stop
I'm ready, so don't stop
Keep pushing
Don't stop me, I'm ready, don't stop
I'm ready to fall, oh-oh-oh-oh
Well, I'm ready
Don't stop me, I'm ready
I'm ready, so don't call
I'm ready, so don't call
[Verse 3]
I am aware, I've been misled
I disconnect my heart, my head
Don't wanna recognize when get bad
The things that you'll accept
Except that I am finding the words to say
[Chorus]
I'm ready
I'm ready to drop, oh-oh-oh-oh
I'm ready
I'm ready, so don't stop
I'm ready, so don't stop
[Bridge]
I wake up to find it's another four aspirin morning, and I dive in
I put on the same clothes I wore yesterday
When did society decide that we had to change
And wash a T-shirt after every individual use?
If it's not dirty, I'm gonna wear it
I take the stairs to the car, and there's fog on the windows
And I'm finding the words
I need caffeine in my bloodstream, so I take caffeine in my bloodstream
I grip the wheel, and all at once, I realize
You're getting away
My life has become a boring pop song, and everyone's singing along
[Chorus]
Well, I'm ready to drop
Well, I'm ready
Well, I'm ready
I'm ready, so don't stop, oh-oh-oh-oh
Well, keep pushing, I'm ready to fall
Well, I'm ready
Don't stop me, I'm ready
I'm ready, so don't call
Don't stop, I already let go
I'm ready, so don't call
Don't stop me, I'm ready
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Don't stop, I already let go
Oh-oh-oh-oh
[Outro]
Already let go
