Don't say you don't miss me yet
I must concede
There's something I have to explain
It isn't easy playing your way
I can't even begin to say

I'm taking back my choices
I'm gonna take us down

I've seen the bravest lions shy away
I've seen the tallest tress fall down
I've made a hobby of self-deprecating
my honesty and my integrity

Don't let me take us now

[Chorus:]
Don't say goodnight, say goodbye
(Say goodbye)
You can't mend us now
(Mend us now)
You can't fix a shattered heart
Don't even try

I'll sell you every ounce of honesty
you'll buy it all and lie with me
I can't pretend there's any truth to me
It's all just vanity and greed

Let me take and call you a crier
I'm gonna need it more

[Chorus]

Here's my advice if you know what's good for you
Don't let your guard down, don't let your guard down
Here's my advice if you know what's good for you
Don't let your guard down, don't let your guard down
Here's my advice if you know what's good for you
Don't let your guard down, don't let your guard down
Here's my advice if you know what's good for you
Don't let your guard down, don't let your guard down now

Don't let me drag you down

[Chorus x2]

I'm taking back my choices
I'm gonna drag us down
Let me take and call you a crier
I'm gonna need it more
