You're my size I need to try you on 
Someone in between the right and wrong 
Through everything you kept your wings apart
Through everything you stayed that same old heart 
And when I've had enough 

She drains me 
When I'm empty 
She fills herself 
She takes it all 
In too deep 
She's spilling over me 
In too deep 
She's spilling over me 
Go on and have it all. 

Running through this maze you hold me in
Searching all these days to find the end 
Your everything, your everything I'm not
But I'm anything, I'm anyone you want 
And when I've had enough 

She drains me 
When I'm empty 
She fills herself 
She takes it all 
In too deep 
She's spilling over me 
In too deep 
She's spilling over me
Go on and have it all
Have it all
Have it all

Your everything you're everything I'm not 
I'm anything I'm anyone you want 

She drains me 
When I'm empty 
She fills herself 
She takes it all 
In too deep 
She's spilling over me 
In too deep  
She's spilling over me 
In too deep 
She's spilling over me 
In too deep 
She's spilling over me 

Have it all
