"The One To Fall" lyrics

"The One To Fall"

Lights out
I'm calling from a thousand miles away
You're going 'bout your day
While I've been struggling to catch my sleep
The days start blending into weeks
It feels like we don't have a thing to say

'Cause I haven't seen your face in months
And you just think I'm out of touch
But it's not fair, I'm everywhere, while you're just waiting
For someone who can give enough
When life's been dealing all too much

I'm hating how it played out on the day I had to leave
'Cause now I'm scared to love the thought of you the way you did with me
I know you'll break and bend, and meet your end, before I'll ever be
The one to fall for someone I could barely see

Right now
I think you hope we're farther than we've come
But so much time has gone
Like, how'd I end up at your family home?
While mine has only seen you once
I hate how we skipped past the parts I want

But it's feeling like it's all too rushed
And you just think I'm out of touch
But it's not fair, I'm everywhere, while you're just waiting

I'm hating how it played out on the day I had to leave
'Cause now I'm scared to love the thought of you the way you did with me
I know you'll break and bend, and meet your end, before I'll ever be
The one to fall for someone I could barely see

You're holding on, I'm holding out
You're looking up as I let you down
You look at me a certain way that I just can't reciprocate so well
I'm sorry that you fell

'Cause now I'm hating how it played out on the day I had to leave
And now I'm scared to love the thought of you the way you did with me
I know you'll break and bend, and meet your end, before I'll ever be
The one to fall for someone I could barely see

I'm hating how it played out on the day I had to leave
'Cause now I'm scared to love the thought of you the way you did with me
I know you'll break and bend, and meet your end, before I'll ever be
The one to fall for someone I could barely see
