"Chance" lyrics

Was I always one step behind
Was there ever truth in you and I
Been tryna figure out this life
But it gets harder every time

I take the train and drift away
I think I'm
Floating in space to see a sign
But I can't look away
It might go by
That's my ride

Point in a direction, pack my bags
I just gotta move waving a white flag
Didn't even think you could get so personal
Really thought I could dodge that jab

I know I wasn't perfect
But I'll put in the work
You look good on the surface
You're best left undisturbed

(What's your problem?)
Can't believe you have the nerve
When this is all of the time that we have
Maybe it's my fault that you're tired running back, yeah

Don't give me a chance
I'll fuck it up again
Give me a chance
I'll fuck it up a-
Don't give me a chance
I'll fuck it up again
Again

I know you feeling it
Even though I'm not feeling it
But I like to pretend that you don't care
We're just stuck in the middle
And everything impeccably
So balanced I wish it was unfair

You deserve the right guy to keep you warm
We all need a lifeguard, I'm on shore
Got a lot of monsters under my bed
And they taught me how I can be something

Barely got the rent paid
If the art moves on
That's a fair trade
I guess

I don't wanna wake up in a cold sweat
Wishing that's what I had
I don't wanna wake up in a cold sweat
Knowing you're upset
That's my bad

So please just don't give me a chance
I'll fuck it up again
Don't give me a chance
I'll fuck it up a-
Don't give me a chance
I'll fuck it up again
Again
