(Verse)
Explanations are too a pain in me
And then you fall quiet
Communication fade
We find ourselves back again
And eat us up, 2012
Let me back up and hide
Maybe you're not a preacher
So don't you serve it up, it up
(Chorus)
If you were me just for a while
But that's just bitter of you
'Cause you are sad inside
If you were me just for a while
Maybe you think about it
More, and realize
(Verse)
And now your feet are under the table
Chew my mind up caught you asleep
But is it ever meant to be rough
In time, upon the crest of a wave
Big wave, big sharks, big as your fingers
Won't sit and spill to the next
Let's get down quiet on the moment
Inside you beat it, boy and before
We find ourselves back again
And eat us up, 3012
But I am not a preacher
Maybe you're not a preacher
So don't you serve it up, it up
(Chorus)
If you were me just for a while
But that's just bitter of you
'Cause you are sad inside
If you were me just for a while
Maybe you think more
More, and realize
(Bridge)
I so love you
It's dead inside
It's on, my heart
And I, I'm sending
Out for more hide
Always comes to the
Same we started at the bottom
So let's meet at the top my friend
It's no use sending, pretending that
If anyone else would ever come close to you
(Chorus) x2
If you were me just for a while
But that's just bitter of you
'Cause you are sad inside
If you were me just for a while
Maybe you think more
More, and realize
