[Verse 1]
Fell out of place today
I could feel it was coming on hard
And I heard everything you’d say
Sometimes all I need is not that far away
Fell out of place today
I could tell by the rate of my heart
That I’d spent too much time awake
Sometimes all I need is just too hard to take
But I felt like I was suffering
So I chose to walk away
And now everytime you see me I’ll be tryna shift the blame
[Chorus]
No you don’t wanna touch me now
Or speak too loud
Feeling like the only one left in the room
If it gets brighter when the lights go down
A feeling of what we got lеft and what we’ve been through
Break undеr responsibilities
I’d be safe here if you ever would
So i’ll stay quiet on the way out
You know I’m only passing through
[Verse 2]
I’m gonna burn away
Just a typical day of my life
I’m not here tryna take the bait
Sometimes all I need is time to make mistakes
If it looks like I’ve been struggling
(it looks like I’ve been struggling)
Might be time to walk away
(Might be time to walk away)
And if everytime you see me
I’m still tryna shift the blame
Know I can’t help it
Can’t take enough for granted
If the world was spinning round
I’d think that I was born to land it
[Chorus]
No you don’t wanna touch me now
Or speak too loud
Feeling like the only one left in the room
If it gets brighter when the lights go down
A feeling of what we got left and what we’ve been through
Break under responsibilities
I’d be safe here if you ever would
So i’ll stay quiet on the way out
You know I’m only passing through
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
Now are you passing through or will you stay a while to notice
Someone was trying to reach you
No you don’t wanna touch me now
Or speak too loud
Now are you passing through like printer paper cartridge low today
If it gets brighter when the lights go down
Someone is trying to reach you
Feeling what we got left and what we've been through
[Solo]
[Chorus]
No you don’t wanna touch me now
Or speak too loud
Are you passing through or will you stay a while
If it gets brighter when the lights go down
Cause someone was trying to reach you
And if we break under responsibilities
I’d be safe here if you ever would
So i’ll stay quiet on the way out
You know I’m only passing through
