Words

(album: Neon - 2013)

We can run we can fly or get caught in traffic yeah
Or we can sink or we can swim or just look right past it yeah
We can survive or let it die there's only one way this can go
Do we know exactly what we're saying

I never thought I'd end up here like this with you
And our future now depends on words we use
We're at the end of the line and now it's time for us to choose
This ain't how I pictured us but baby

Here we are
Standing face to face
In a moment things could change
Be careful of the words we say
Cause they could go too far
Like a bullet shot in space
We'd be gone without a trace
And get lost inside the flames
Be careful of the words we say
The words we say

We've been here we've been there
We said never again
Yet here we are I see you're scared
To even look right at me yeah
Cause you know like I do
That this might just be the end
And either way girl something's gotta give in

I never thought I'd end up here like this with you
And our future now depends on words we use
We're at the end of the line and now it's time for us to choose
This ain't how I pictured us but baby

Here we are
Standing face to face
In a moment things could change
Be careful of the words we say
Cause they could go too far
Like a bullet shot in space
We'd be gone without a trace
And get lost inside the flames
Be careful of the words we say
The words we say

Lay down, lay down, lay down, lay down your guard
And tear down, tear down, tear down, tear down the walls and
Let out, let out, let out, let out the words we say (ohh)
Lay down, lay down, lay down, lay down your guard
And tear down, tear down, tear down, tear down the walls and
Let out, let out, let out, let out the words we say (oooh)

And think about it baby
Take a minute to yourself
Cause this ain't how I pictured us
This ain't how I pictured us but baby

Here we are
Standing face to face
In a moment things could change
Be careful of the words we say
Cause they could go too far
Like a bullet shot in space
We'd be gone without a trace
And get lost inside the flames
Be careful of the words we say
The words we say
