Never thought that we would end up here
Should've known it from the start
I know you mean it when you say you love me
But we're trying way too hard
Used to think that we would last forever
How could I've been so wrong?
Never thought I'd be the one to say this
But if our time has come and gone
You, you don't mean no harm
But you're stringin' me along
And I don't have the time to spare
And I, I'm trying hard to breath
But you're suffocating me
This time I'm coming up for air
Air, air, air, air, air, air
Air, air, air, air, air, air, air
Always tryna put your two cents, in
And excepting me to change
Tried to fix me up but I'm not broken
All you do is leave me stained
Told you not to tie me down too quickly
Take it slow it's not a race
And you keep on tryna reel me in
But, all I really need is space
You, you don't mean no harm
But you're stringin' me along
And I don't have the time to spare
And I, I'm trying hard to breath
But you're suffocating me
This time coming up for air
Air, air, air, air, air, air
Air, air, air, air, air, air, air
Air, air, air, air, air, air
Air, air, air, air, air, air, air
Trying to hold me down but
I'm surfacing
It's hard to let you go
But I gotta leave
You, you don't mean no harm
But you're stringin' me along
And I don't have the time to spare
And I, I'm trying hard to breath
But you're suffocating me
I'm coming up for air
You, you don't mean no harm
But you're stringin' me along
And I don't have the time to spare
And I, I'm trying hard to breath (I'm trying hard to breath)
But you're suffocating me
This time I'm coming up for air
Air, air, air, air, air, air
Air, air, air, air, air, air, air
Air, air, air, air, air, air
Air, air, air, air, air, air, air
