Killing Me Slowly

[Intro]
Killing me, killing me, killing me slowly

[Verse 1]
I built these walls to hide my ghosts
Your fingers trace the wounds exposed
I try and try to let you in
But I fail again and again

[Pre-Chorus]
So I keep you at arm's length and let you go
But I don't wanna give you away
Yeah, I keep you at arm's length and let you go
But only if you promise to stay

[Chorus]
You think you know that you know, but you really don't know me
I know you love so hard, and it's killing me slowly
And now I can't eat, can't sleep, knowing that you're not lonely
I know you love so hard, and it's killing me slowly

[Post-Chorus]
Killing me, killing me, killing me slowly

[Verse 2]
I run this maze, erase my steps
With lips that lie, with every breath
You try and try to let me in
But I hurt you again and again

[Pre-Chorus]
So I keep you at arm's length and let you go
But I don't wanna give you away
Yeah, I keep you at arm's length and let you go
But only if you promise to stay

[Chorus]
You think you know that you know, but you really don't know me
I know you love so hard, and it's killing me slowly
And now I can't eat, can't sleep, knowing that you're not lonely
I know you love so hard, and it's killing me slowly, killing me slowly

[Bridge]
You are everything I need, I should've known, I should've known
You are everything I need, I should've known
You are everything I need, I should've known, I should've known
You are everything I need, I should've known

[Chorus]
You think you know that you know, but you really don't know me
I know you love so hard, and it's killing me slowly
And now I can't eat, can't sleep, knowing that you're not lonely
I know you love so hard, and it's killing me slowly

[Outro]
You are everything I need, I should've known
Killing me, killing me, killing me slowly
You are everything I need, I should've known
Killing me, killing me, killing me slowly
