Intro

Verse 1

I should be out there having my fun

Drinking beers with the boys and watching time run

I should be listening to what I said

When I said stay away from who you can't forget

Pre-chorus

 Now you come messing my heart around,

 Now all I had to do was be,

Chorus

 And I can't play you down

 But I won't pull the trigger

 If I said how I felt it would be something bigger

 So fast I'll be face first, flat on the ground

It's a losing game trying to play, you down

It's a losing game trying to play you down

 Here we go

Verse 2

I should be thinking about other stuff

Maybe read a book on how to run from love

Cause you dragged me down by the heels

Had me busted up for years, and years

Pre-chorus

 Now you come pushing my heart around

 All you had to do was be,

Chorus

 And I can't play you down

 But I won't pull the trigger

 If I said how I felt it would be something bigger

 So fast I'll be face first, flat on the ground

It's a losing game trying to play, you down

It's a losing game trying to play you down

Bridge

I don't wanna tell you what you already know

Everybody's talkin'

Everybody's talkin'

 I need some more time just to be alone
