Drag Me Down

I wanted to be like the men in the movies

Who always seem to get it right

I wanted to be just like your favorite scene

The hero always wins the fight

A little too late now to start over again

I'm still the same clown masquerading behind a pen

I wanted to be like a star on a screen

At least then it was meant to be

But then the focus changes, I'm blurring through the pages

My heartbeat fading

Drag me down with you

I taste it, yeah, on the tip of my tongue, enough is enough

Won't drag me down with you

I'll face it, yeah, I'm calling your bluff, enough is enough

Won't drag me down with—

I thought we would be a happy ditsy melody

Now we're singing Byzantine (Now we're singing Byzantine)

I thought we would be another smile in a magazine

A pretty perfect little dream

But I'm just a loser, beggar and chooser

You seem to think there's more to the illusion

I think I've lost my thought

'Cause I wanted to be like the men in the movies

Maybe then I'll get it right

With you

I taste it, yeah, on the tip of my tongue, enough is enough

Won't drag me down with you

I'll face it, yeah, I'm calling your bluff, enough is enough

Won't drag me down with you, oh

On the tip of my tongue, enough is enough

Won't drag me down with you

I'm calling your bluff, enough is enough

Won't drag me down with—

The fear of dying alone

Doesn't hurt half as much (Doesn't hurt half as much)

As the feeling of letting it go

After one last touch

Drag me down with you

I taste it, yeah, on the tip of my tongue, enough is enough

Won't drag me down with you (You, ooh-ooh)

I'll face it, yeah, I'm calling your bluff, enough is enough

Won't drag me down with you, oh

On the tip of my tongue, enough is enough

Won't drag me down with you

I'm calling your bluff, enough is enough

Won't drag me down with—
