[Verse]

Draw your x's

Draw your guns

Can we just call this even

Drop our blades

Sheathe our tongues

Take a moment from this deadly standoff


[Pre-Chorus]

I’m not trying to play any games

If you see me pulling away


[Chorus]

I’m falling too far

And slipping too fast into the crash, the crash

So I’m holding back

Even as I hold on to all the things you are


[Verse]

What if I’m not enough

Or the fire flies away?

Left burning up in your atmosphere

In my dreams you’d reappear

For years and years and years and years


[Pre-Chorus]

Not trying to play any games

I just find certain words hard to say


[Chorus]

When I’m falling too far

And slipping too fast into the crash, the crash

So I’m holding back

Even as I hold on to all the things you are


[Bridge]

And I’ve been waiting on forever for forever

Taking two steps forward

Now i’m ten steps back, oh

Gentle, have patience going over

I’m cradling your heart as we give in to that


[Chorus]

Falling too far

And slipping too fast into the crash, the crash

So I’m holding back

Even as I hold on to

All the things you are


[Outro]

Draw your x's

Draw your guns

Can we just call this even
