"Maybe" lyrics

"Maybe"

I've said a thousand things before
I've fallen in and out of love
I couldn't walk but tried to run
At night the weight of expectation seems to keep me up

A thousand times I said too much
Always second guess before I jump
I gave my all but not enough
And with the weight of expectation, I'll be sleeping rough

How come I'm the only one who ever seems to get in my way?
Lately, I've been fucking up a good thing any chance I can get

Somebody to lean on, somebody to hold
It's just another to lead on, before I let go
And I ain't tryna be lonely, slowly
But everything I touch turns to stone
Maybe you're better off on my own

A thousand times I've heard the same
A victim of the voices in my head
Let me assure you that my mind's in check
I just can't put my faith in something we might live to regret

How come I'm the only one who ever seems to get in my way?
Lately, I've been fucking up a good thing any chance I can get

Somebody to lean on, somebody to hold
It's just another to lead on before I let go
And I ain't tryna be lonely, slowly
But everything I touch turns to stone
Maybe you're better off on my own

Everything that I touch turns to stone
Maybe you're better off on my own
Everything that I touch turns to stone
Maybe you're better off on my own

How come I'm the only one who ever seems to get in my way?
Lately, I've been fucking up a good thing any chance I can get

Somebody to lean on, somebody to hold
It's just another to lead on before I let go
And I ain't tryna be lonely, slowly
But everything I touch turns to stone
Maybe you're better off on my own
