[Verse]

Four months of holding on

Feels like your love's all gone

Your heart's a broken record

Singing the same old song

I'm so

Damn tired

Of this running back-and-forth

'Cause I don't wanna feel this way anymore (anymore!)


[Chorus]

Take your time (or you'll be stuck longer)

I'll take mine (it'll just make you stronger)


[Verse 2]

I need to stay grounded

I'm lost and surrounded

I can feel it slip away

I don't wanna forget the days

Of hitting that same ceiling

And I almost miss that feeling

Of trying so hard to impress you

But why did I feel like I had to


[Chorus]

Take your time (or you'll be stuck longer)

And I'll take mine (it'll just make you stronger)

'Cause I know that's it hard, and you hate it

But I'm beggin' you, please just be patient

You'll be fine if you just keep your distance

'Cause you don't even know what you're chasing

[Bridge}

I thought I wanted a permanent solution

For all of the shit that you got (Take me back to the days when I wanted one thing)

But now I realize that I was just too stupid

Too see you for someone you're not (Take me back to the days when I wanted one thing)


[Chorus]

Take your time (or you'll be stuck longer)

And I'll take mine (it'll just make you stronger)

'Cause I know that's it hard, and you hate it

But I'm beggin' you, please just be patient

You'll be fine if you just keep your distance

'Cause you don't even know what you're chasing


[Outro]

All along, I've found

That I don't even know what I'm chasing

All along, I've found (take me back to the days when I wanted one thing)

That I don't even know what I'm chasing

All along, I've found ('cause I know that it's hard and you hate it)

But I'm beggin' you, please just be patient

All along, I've found (you'll be fine if you just keep your distance)

'Cause I don't even know what I'm chasing

All along, I've found (take me back to the days when I wanted one thing)

That I don't even know what I'm chasing

All along, I've found

That I don't even know what I'm chasing
