Lyrics

[Verse 1]

And today was a day just like any other

[Verse 2]

I'm on the verge, I'm on the verge

Unraveling with every word

With every word you say, make me believe

That I won't feel your tires on the street

[Verse 3]

As I'm finding the words

You're getting away

I come undone, oh, yes, I do

Just think of all the thoughts wasted on you

[Verse 4]

And every word you say, say something sweet

'Cause all I taste is blood between my teeth

[Verse 5]

As I'm finding the words

You're getting away

Well, I'm ready

I'm ready to drop, oh, I'm ready

I'm ready, so don't stop

I'm ready, so don't stop

Keep pushing (Don't stop me, I'm ready)

I'm ready to fall (Don't stop me)

I'm ready (Don't stop me, I'm ready)

I'm ready, so don't call

I'm ready, so don't call

[Verse 6]

I am aware I've been mislead

I disconnect my heart, my head

Don't wanna recognize when things go bad

The thing's that you'll accept, accept that I am finding the words

[Verse 7]

To say I'm ready

I'm ready to drop, oh, I'm ready

I'm ready, so don't stop

I'm ready, so don't stop

[Verse 8]

I wake up to find it's another four aspirin morning and I dive in

I put on the same clothes I wore yesterday

When did society decide that we had to change

And wash our T-shirt after every individual use?

If it's not dirty I'm gonna wear it

I take the stairs to the car and there's fog on the windows

[Verse 9]

I'm finding the words (I need caffeine in my bloodstream)

(I take caffeine in bloodstream, I grip the wheel and all at once I realize)

And you're getting away (My life has become a boring pop song and everyone's singing along)

Well, I'm ready (Well, I'm ready) To drop

Well, I'm ready

I'm ready, so don't stop, oh

Well, keep pushing, I'm ready to fall

Well, I'm ready (Don't stop me, I'm ready)

I'm ready, so don't call (Don't stop me, I'm ready)

I'm ready, so don't call

Don't stop me, I'm ready (Oh)

Don't stop me, I'm ready (Oh)

I'm ready to let go

[Verse 10]

(Was that good?)
