​nightlife
​new low
[Intro]
(Million other things)
(There's a million other things I could have)
(Million other things)

[Verse 1]
I tried to fake it
But I never thought I'd end up making everything about me
(Ooh, everything about me)
Yeah, I tried to shake it
But I never could imagine you would move along without me
(Yeah, along without me)
How could you save me if I stay fuckin' up?
(Seems I never learn my lesson, baby)
The patience you gave me, I stay runnin' up
(Ooh, runnin' up)

[Pre-Chorus]
But I know
This is just how these things go
I've been in touch with my new low
And if I could, I'd let you know

[Chorus]
(And show you why I)
Shut my mouth so often
'Cause no one wants to hear what I've been talkin'
And over time, I don't know what was real or in my head
And there's a million other things I could've said
[Verse 2]
Yeah, I've tried to keep my feelings covered up
Covered up

[Pre-Chorus]
But I know
This is just how these things go
I've been in touch with my new low
And it's showing, you ain't gotta know it
We've been over this before
(And tell me, where did that go now?)
We dance in perfect circles
I can't help but play myself
One foot forward, three steps backwards
Now I can't keep up

[Chorus]
I'll show you why I shut my mouth so often
'Cause no one wants to hear what I've been talkin'
And over time, I don't know what was real or in my head
And there's a million other things I could've said

[Post-Chorus]
(Million other things)
(There's a million other things I could have)
(Million other things)
There's a million other things I could've said
(Million other things) Hey
(There's a million other things I could have) Ooh
(Million other things)
And I don't know if this feeling's going away
[Bridge]
So cut me wide open
Look at the scars you left inside
Help me make light of the bleeding
Until there's nothing left behind

[Chorus]
I'll show you why I shut my mouth so often
'Cause no one wants to hear what I've been talkin'
(No one wants to hear what I've been talkin', baby)
And over time, I don't know what was real or in my head
(What was real or in my head)
And there's a million other things I could've said

[Post-Chorus]
(Million other things)
(There's a million other things I could have)
Ooh, there's a million things I could have
(Million other things)
No, I can't help myself
(Million other things) Hey
(There's a million other things I could have) Ooh yeah
(Million other things)
And I don't know if this feeling's going away, no

[Outro]
We dance in perfect circles
I can't help but play myself (I can't help but play myself)
One foot forward, three steps backwards
Now I can't keep up with you
(Million other things)
(There's a million other things I could have)
(Million other things)
With you
(Million other things)
(There's a million other things I could have)
(Million other things)
