lyrics

Verse:
I really feel like I’m losing my time
A hundred years passed me by last night I really feel like I’m wasting my mind Thinking ‘bout you, thinking ‘bout you
I could drown or I could be on fire
I could dream that I lose control
But tonight I’m here trying to get higher without you

Chorus:
But i felt like I was dying from the moment that I saw you Run into the traffic in the street to ignore you
Every time I try to tell somebody why I have this fear, They say “worse things can happen”
It comes on hard and I’m breathing kinda heavy
The beat of my heart makes my feet unsteady
All they wanna tell me is the last thing that I want to hear “Worse things can happen”

(Things are moving, under my skin
I can’t breathe out, I can’t breathe in Things are crawling, under my skin Walls are closing in, walls are closing in)

Verse 2:
Now I’m flying in my room
They say get low, get low, get low
Now I’m diving off the roof
And they’re screaming “look out below!”
I don’t know, where I go
Can’t feel my hands can’t feel my toes
I’m either dying or getting higher without you

Chorus:
But i felt like I was dying from the moment that I saw you Run into the traffic in the street to ignore you
Every time I try to tell somebody why I have this fear, They say “worse things can happen”
It comes on hard and I’m breathing kinda heavy
The beat of my heart makes my feet unsteady
All they wanna tell me is the last thing that I want to hear “Worse things can happen”

Bridge:
And the worst thing is I’m fine No, really, I am
Don’t make this a thing
I’ve not yet lost my mind
It’s not what you think
I’m falling down...
But worse things can happen

Things are moving, under my skin
I can’t breathe out, I can’t breathe in
Things are crawling, under my skin
Walls are closing in, but worse things can happen
