[Verse 1]
Baby, do you think that I could maybe try and make it colder?
Colder than the etched in stone
When I know I just wanna be your best friend
Baby, you'll find the time and place
Well maybe I like the rhyme and taste
Of freedom, on my tongue and in my soul
On the top of that hill where I used to call home
And tell my mom, my pops, and hometown
That maybe I'd come back around
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe I'd call off the hounds
Maybe I'd live by the downs
Maybe I'd ask how it sounds
And maybe you'd tell me
That you couldn't bear to see me go home
Well maybe I never left there at all
Excuse me, I'll try not to bump in
To soft subjects while the bass is pumping
And the me is jumping
And I'm gone let me tell you where
[Chorus]
Why do you think that I'm a stranger, to my own damn friends?
Do they believe I want to break her?
Please, I couldn't make her bend
Darling see that it's the truth now
And I do now what I should've done then
Do you wanna see it through now, the breakdown
And where it begins?
Come on I'll walk you through that door
[Verse 2]
Ooh I'll take what I can get, the smaller I feel, the smaller I sit
And the better for you and your cool confidence
(does it make any sense?)
Does it make any sense that I'm drowning?
Does it make sense that the madness surrounding
All that I see, and all that I do
Is all cause of me, I'll blame it on you
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Does it ever feel like I'll make it alright, how?
People be coming up telling me I am doing fine
But I want you old friend to make it right now
People be coming up telling me I will get mine
Talking at breakneck speeds, I need you to take your time
[Chorus]
Why do you think that I'm a stranger, to my own damn friends?
Do they believe I want to break her?
Please, I couldn't make her bend
Darling see that it's the truth now
And I do now what I should've done then
Do you wanna see it through now, the breakdown
And where it begins?
Come on I'll walk you through that door
