[Intro]
'Cause I like you
I won't take it-
I won't take it there because I like you
I know if I shouldn't but I'd like to
I know if I shouldn't but I'd like to
I know if I sh-
(Yeah, yeah)
[Verse 1]
I've been
Looking up too close at the serpent's face
Like please don't come around me, stay
Out of this gaping pit, I climb myself up out it
I got out a real bad place
I ain't gon' bring my friends around it
I don't need the house no one here but somehow it still feels crowded
Anti-social loneliness, I do this to myself
But I'm all good, no doubt
I just got shit I just can't figure out
Got it wrapped 'round my finger now
She put me through the wringer now
I'm glad I wasn't around
And, and
I don't make plans for too far in the future
There's no telling
I don't waste breath on if they like me
Or what they say about it
I don't wanna rot at some place
I just happened to hang around in
Can't save what's not drowning
[Bridge]
I'm in deep flames, high
Strung and set on fire
Gasoline, I can smell my fry
I can see it through these melted eyes
[Verse 2]
Stuck myself inside this puddle on the sidewalk
No, I'm not civil but if you met me
You'd say I'm nice, though
It's not that simple
Watch me trip over my tied shoes
And I know I shouldn't take it there
But I'd sure like to
Hold my head up, hold my hand
And look both ways and back behind you
Not gon' act like all my traits are figured out
It's nice to fine-tune
I'm still taking it day-by-day but I'm much better when beside you
All these incorrect ways I see myself am tied to
(Yeah)
[Outro]
I won't take it there because I like you
Don't know if I should check in but I'd like to
I made my own you in my own mind too
My head's swelling, calling me to write to
It don't take that much just to lie too
Don't do much but I'll admit sometimes I'd like to
Girl, can we just talk it out? I don't wanna fight you
It's easier said than done to leave it all behind you
