[Verse 1]

I've been lyin’ through my teeth

Is it so hard to see?

Is it so hard to see?

Nobody gets underneath

And it gets so lonely

It gets so lonely


[Pre-Chorus]

And, oh, I try every time we touch

To let you in, to let you in

But it's not enough, it's not enough, it’s not enough

And overthinkin' everything

I'm barricadin', I'm barricadin' my own skin


[Chorus]

So break down these four walls

'Cause they're heavy and they’re tall

And they’re weighin' me down

If I let go of it all

Would you catch me, would you hold me?

Or would you let me drown, drown, drown?

I’m halfway down


[Post-Chorus]

Ooh, ooh

Yeah, I'm halfway down

Ooh

Would you let me drown, drown, drown?

I'm halfway down


[Drop]

Ooh, ooh

Yeah, I'm halfway down

Ooh, ooh

I’m halfway down


[Verse 2]

Every time that we speak

I'm scared that you'll see

The same me I see

And when you do, would you leave

Or would you stay another night?

Another night


[Pre-Chorus]

And, oh, I try every time we touch

To let you in, to let you in

But it's not enough, it's not enough, it's not enough

And if you do, would you leave

Or would you stay and hold me

Another night, another night, another night?


[Chorus]

So break down these four walls

'Cause they're heavy and they're tall

And they're weighin' me down

If I let go of it all

Would you catch me, would you hold me?

Or would you let me drown, drown, drown?

I'm halfway down


[Drop]

You'd be better alone, yeah, everyone knows

Wherever I go, I'm breakin' apart

But I'll hold you close, I'm lettin' you know

Before I tear it all apart

You'd be better alone, yeah, everyone knows

Wherever I go, I'm breakin' apart

But I'll hold you close, I'm lettin' you know

Before I tear it all apart

Ooh, ooh

Yeah, I'm halfway down

Ooh, ooh

I'm halfway down


[Outro]

Ooh, ooh

Yeah, I'm halfway down
