Back down before it gets too deep
Break down send broken homes
Lying lifeless at the barkeep’s expense
As he smiles and he says, “50 Cent is a rapper and not a tip”
So keep your chin up, Kate, it’s just a late night scheme
Leave behind everything that held us back
White out the imperfections that have led to my insecurities
And it’s what’s been keeping me from you
Emptiness spills onto this page
These words mean nothing
And I can feel the weight of my life begin to drop
As this numbness seeps into my veins
Tap the brakes and late night shakes
“Oh, babe some scars are just too deep”
Look around this empty stage
“Break a leg, hit the floor, and show me some more backbone,” he said
Laid out on the bed
Just romp it out
Leave behind everything that held us back
White out the imperfections that have led to my insecurities
And it’s what’s been keeping me from you
Tap the brakes and late night shakes
“Oh, babe some scars are just too deep”
Look around this empty stage
“Break a leg, hit the floor, and show me some more backbone,” he said
Laid out on the bed
Just romp it out
Leave behind everything that held us back
White out the imperfections that have led to my insecurities
And it’s what’s been keeping me from you
