Don’t You Dare

You may have had the best of them, but to the rest, well I suggest to them
That they pack their shit and stay out of your way
Cuz ever since you came around, things have been looking up but staying down
And again I'm left with nothing to say
So I stand against the wall with my hands in my pockets
Just waiting for the world to melt away
Cuz I could be losing it
And I could be losing you
Don't you dare break this down
Don't you dare, cuz you know that I'll be hanging around
Standing by, telling lies
So I watch you go, but I'm not saying nothing
Just waiting all my life to catch your eye
Once I got elevated, it was all easy
I mouthed off and hit knowledge cuz it pleased me
But life wound down to the ground sound
So every single breath was just another way to seize these
Feelings and dealings that clouded my brain
And every day I pray for rain but I lie and stay dry
Dry and distant, because I missed it
It was right in front of me and I dismissed it
