[Intro]
Slow down, take it back
You don't even know what you're mad at
You can do anything that you want, you don't even gotta come back
Give me some time, don't mean to make you anxious
Don't lose your mind, be careful where you're aimin'
I'll be your sunshine, if you'll be the moon
I drown in your oceans to pull me to you
I tread in the water the currents pullin' me farther
And the shore, I can see it, but knowing me, I won't bother
[Pre-Chorus]
And I should probably run away fast
We're dancing on this cracking glass
And even though we're going down slow
I can't keep my eyes off of you
[Chorus]
And I don't wanna be the one that brings you down and makes you cry
I'll give you everything I can, just stick around this time
I know it seems like I don't care anymore
I guess I'm comfortable with you in this war
[Verse 2]
And I got time, if you got questions
They're hard to answer, I'm sure you guessed it
What's new, I know, it's not like you've never heard that before, yeah, I'm sorry
If we keep on wastin' this time, I'm losing my mind, just give me your body
Covered in gold, but I've been feelin' my flaws now
Don't step on my toes, I'm finally letting my guard down
You're losin' your patience and I know right now you hate me
And in the heat of the moment I know I say things that ain't me
[Pre-Chorus]
And I should probably run away fast
We're dancing on this cracking glass
And even though we're going down, slow
I can't keep my eyes off of you
[Chorus]
And I don't wanna be the one that brings you down and makes you cry
I'll give you everything I can, just stick around this time
I know it seems like I don't care anymore
I guess I'm comfortable with you in this war
[Bridge]
(With you in this-
With you in this war, yeah
With you in this-
With you in this war)
[Chorus]
And I don't wanna be the one that brings you down and makes you cry
I'll give you everything I can, just stick around this time
I know it seems like I don't care anymore
I guess I'm comfortable with you in this war

Jake Hill shared on YouTube:
I wrote this song in July 2019 to a different beat. This was before I even knew I wanted to do an Autumn themed album. The original instrumental had a summer vibe to it so I had Josh A remake it to fit the album.
GHXST added final touches.
