[Verse 1]
I don't want to make you nervous
But it's right under the surface
While you look at your reflection
You're just falling away from everything

[Pre-Chorus]
Can't you see I'm holding?
Can't you see I'm holding out?
And I'm not trying to make you nervous
But I think that we deserve this

[Chorus]
Horse racing, wear me down until the muscle is thin
Look out, another body coming around the bend
Forget it, we're never gonna make it to the end (No, no)
Horse racing, wear me down until the muscle is thin
Look out, another body coming around the bend
Forget it, wе're never gonna makе it to the end

[Verse 2]
We've been hiding in our habits
What did we think was gonna happen?
Oh, someone else is always worse off
We're just finding our way, finding our way (I've been telling you)
[Pre-Chorus]
Can't you see I'm holding? (Falling away, falling away)
I can't believe I'm holding out (I've been telling you)
And I'm not trying to make you nervous (Falling away, falling away)
But I think that we deserve this (I think that we deserve this)

[Verse 2]
Horse racing, wear me down until the muscle is thin
Look out, another body coming around the bend
Forget it, we're never gonna make it to the end (No, no)
Horse racing, wear me down until the muscle is thin
Look out, another body coming around the bend
Forget it, we're never gonna make it to the end

[Bridge]
And the hardest part
Is telling myself I don't already know it's been falling apart
Since the day we started (Yeah!)
No, no, no, no
No, no, no, no
Falling away, falling away
Can't you see I'm holding?
Can't you see I'm holding on?
And I'm not trying to make you nervous

[Outro]
But I think that we deserve this
I think that we deserve this
