"Jumping The Gun" lyrics

"Jumping The Gun"

I let myself get carried away
Rule book out of the front door
Never felt this lost before you came along
I always have something to say
But I can't find the words no more
Head and heart are waging war, I can't explain

How I feel when I'm lying in your bed
But I know that I'm not using my head
And my body gets weak in the silence, oh
Yeah, I wish it could all be so simple
As our feelings being reciprocal
Tryna find common ground in the middle
But I'm so used to acting on impulse

Jumping the gun for you (for you)
But I've got way too much to lose
I let myself get confused
I messed up my priorities
Now I'll always be stuck with this wound

Maybe I should start giving you space
When I'm too close it hurts me more (hurts me more)
But far away I start to fall (start to fall)
I can't win, either or (no, no)
I guess that I'll be taking the blame
For being irresponsible
What did I do that for?

So surreal when I'm lying in your bed (your bed)
But I know that I'm not using my head (my head)
And my body gets weak in the silence, oh (silence, oh)
Yeah, I wish it could all be so simple (simple)
As our feelings being reciprocal (reciprocal)
Tryna find common ground in the middle
But I'm so used to acting on impulse

Jumping the gun for you
But I've got way too much to lose (too much to lose)
I let myself get confused (get confused)
I messed up my priorities
Now I'll always be stuck with this wound
(Jumping the gun)
Jumping the gun for you
But I've got way too much to lose
I let myself get confused (confused)
I messed up my priorities
Now I'll always be stuck with this wound
Jumping the gun for you
But I've got way too much to lose
I let myself get confused
I messed up my priorities
Now I'll always be stuck with...
