The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You head straight for the drug you love
Now I can barely breathe, I really need you
I guess all we had were trips away
And birthday celebration barbecues
You can't condem the town you're from
The life you're born into, your neighborhood
'Cause somewhere there's a beating heart
That needs to prove it's just misunderstood
And you breath in
And you breath out
There's an off-white little lie
I made about you
That I meant to hurt you
I meant to hurt you
I gotta call time, guess it's better
To dive in the deep end sometimes
Well I gotta let you go
Well I gotta let you go, now
Call time, yeah, it's easier to hide
In the darkness sometimes
Oh, I gotta take control
And I gotta let you go, now
I know it's bad to open yourself up this much
To girls from posh schools
Still somehow I convinced myself that
Time it's better spent alone with you
And you breath in
And can't breath out
There's an off-white a little lie
I made about you
That I meant to hurt you
I meant to hurt
I gotta call time, guess it's better
To dive in the deep end sometimes
Well I gotta let you go
Well I gotta let you go, now
Call time, yeah, it's easier to hide
In the darkness sometimes
Oh, I gotta take control
And I gotta let you go, now
And I
I wouldn't waste a breath on you
'Cause I meant
I meant to hurt you
