[Verse 1]

Hold me down under the water

You know well that I can't swim

I'm not tryna be a martyr

Know that I won't let you in

Safe and warm inside myself

But you need more than someone else

[Chorus]

You need space, you need time

You take yours and I'll take mine

Come closer, so I can be the one to push

It's not me, it's just you

It doesn't mean shit when it falls through, come closer

So I can be the one to push you

The one to push

[Verse 2]

Hold me tight enough to kill me

Bite my tongue so I can't speak

Clip my wings so I can't fly

Bury me deep, but I won’t die

Was it worth it? (Worth it, worth it)

[Chorus]

You need space, you need time

You take yours and I'll take mine

Come closer (Closer), so I can be the one to push

It's not me, it's just you

It doesn't mean shit when it falls through, come closer (Closer)

So I can be the one to push you (Push you)

The one to push you (Push you)

[Bridge]

Guess I needed you enough not to notice

Guess I wanted you enough to lie

You wear so many faces, I should have known it

But that sure was a beautiful disguise

[Chorus]

You need space, you need time

You take yours and I'll take mine

Come closer, so I can be the one to push

It's not me, it's just you

It doesn't mean shit when it falls through, come closer (Closer)

So I can be the one to push you (Push you)

Yeah

The one to push you (Push you)

The one to push you

[Outro]

Put our game in the past

We make love and we attack, let me hold you

So you can be the one to push back
