You drag the whole world down inside your gravity
And I'd rather watch you drown than live inside the flames

I wish I could write you something you could relate to
But with the shit you put me through, I'm kind of afraid to
You push all the blame on me like it's your way to
Escape from the reality that everyone hates you
No one can break through
And all you wanna do is evade truths
Lying through your teeth like you were selling some fake news
Hoping everyone will play your games and embrace you
But all we wanna do is find a way to escape you

So run away
You'll never escape yourself
With one foot in the grave

(You drag the whole world down inside your gravity)
It's a long way down from here
It's a long way down from here
(I'd rather watch you drown than live inside the flames)
It's a long way down from here
It's a long way down from here

There you go again, always making the worst of it
You push away your friends and you're always the first to quit
The thoughts in your head ain't nothing but turbulent
Quit trying to pretend that your life hasn't turned to shit
How did you forget what being a person is?
And how can I respect you when you're making it hurt like this
Karma's a bitch, it's what you deserve to get
If you made the fire, then I think you should burn in it

So run away
You'll never escape yourself
With one foot in the grave

(You drag the whole world down inside your gravity)
It's a long way down from here
It's a long way down from here
(I'd rather watch you drown than live inside the flames)
It's a long way down from here
It's a long way down from here

You feel it sinking in
Underneath the skin
You're gone
You feel it sinking in
It's underneath the skin
So will you sink or swim?
All alone again
So long
You're all alone again
So will you sink or swim?

So run, run away

(You drag the whole world down inside your gravity)
It's a long way down from here
It's a long way down from here
(I'd rather watch you drown than live inside the flames)
It's a long way down from here
It's a long way down from here

(You drag the whole world down inside your gravity)
It's a long way down from here
It's a long way down from here
Down from here
(You drag the whole world down, down, down)
It's a long way down from here
It's a long way down from here
