Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Caught you at midnight

Not in my right mind

What you're afraid of

Is where I just came from

An ugly confession

I think that I'm broken, when I try to be open

[Verse 2]

I get the feeling that I'm giving up on something I love

Too much

The sweetest misery that's taking me, I'm lost in the rush

Because

[Verse 3]

Ever since you've been my ace of hearts

Hit me like a freight train in the dark

Come on, baby, take me far away

I wanna get so lost in the great escape

[Verse 4]

We shouldn't have to try

We shouldn't have to try so hard

[Verse 5]

We shouldn't have to try

We shouldn't have to try so hard

[Verse 6]

You think you can meet me

Alone on the side street

There's darkness between us

The moon is a witness

[Verse 7]

An ugly confession

I feel so unstable, when it's out on the table

[Verse 8]

I get the feeling that I'm giving up on something I love

Too much

The sweetest misery that's taking me, I'm lost in the rush

Because

[Verse 9]

Ever since you've been my ace of hearts

Hit me like a freight train in the dark

Come on, baby, take me far away

I wanna get so lost in the great escape

[Verse 10]

We shouldn't have to try

We shouldn't have to try so hard

[Verse 11]

We shouldn't have to try

We shouldn't have to try so hard

[Verse 12]

Shouldn't have to try so hard

[Verse 13]

Shouldn't have to try so hard

[Verse 14]

Ever since you've been my ace of hearts

Hit me like a freight train in the dark

Come on, baby, take me far away

I wanna get so lost in the great escape

[Verse 15]

We shouldn't have to try

We shouldn't have to try so hard

[Verse 16]

We shouldn't have to try

We shouldn't have to try so hard
