Give me your black lungs
|
And your blue eyes
|
And we'll trade them in for a new disguise
|
Give me your best bet
|
And your worst lie
|
And we'll fill them in with a straighter line
|
You could be everything I wanted
|
If you just gave up on holding back
|
And I've never lost so many words
|
From kissing just one girl
|
You've got potential
|
|
Wait for it
|
Wait for nights that compliment you
|
Ignore the girls that just resent you
|
It's easier to pretend you don't care at all
|
Now wait for it
|
Wait for boys that overwhelm you
|
And tell them that you're not that type of girl
|
And you would rather sit and talk about your goals
|
|
You give me black lungs
|
And your blue eyes
|
And we'll trade them in for a new disguise
|
Give me your best bet
|
And your worst lie
|
And we'll fill them in with a straighter line
|
You could be everything I wanted
|
If you just gave up on holding back
|
'Cause I never lost so many words
|
From kissing just one girl
|
You've got potential
|
|
Wait for it
|
Wait for nights that decimate you
|
Wake up and then pray for saving
|
Hope has never seemed so far away from you
|
Now wait for it
|
Wait for years to pass you by
|
You're looking back at all the times
|
You wish you hadn't compromised at all
|
|
Well I tried
|
Well I tried
|
Well I tried to make you see
|
That you lost reality somewhere
|
I tried
|
|
Give me your black lungs
|
And your blue eyes
|
And we'll trade them in for a new disguise
|
Give me your best bet
|
And your worst lie
|
And we'll fill them in with a straighter line
|
You could be everything I wanted
|
If you just gave up on holding back
|
And I've never lost so many words
|
From kissing just one girl
|
You've got potential
|
