"say it first" lyrics

I think I know where this is going
When I think too hard about it, it starts showing
So I rein myself in between the lines you say
I know you wanna say more
We dance around what's in store
But I'm falling

I'm not as scared as I used to be
It doesn't mean I'm ready either

It's at the tip of my tongue, I have to admit
But I don't want to say it first
Oh, I want you to say it first

You pull me closer by my heartstrings
And they all fall untied, but softness still stings
So I hold my breath in between the lines I draw
I'm starting to erase them
Please, trespass through, I'm condemned
'Cause I'm falling

I'm not as scared as I used to be
That doesn't mean I'm ready, either

It's at the tip of my tongue, I have to admit
But I don't want to say it first
Oh, I want you to say it first

I'm still scared as I'll ever be
But being scared of feeling is worse
It's at the tip of my tongue, I have to admit
But I don't want to say it first

I don't want to say it, but it's on my mind
So I'll just keep praying
You'll make the first move this time
I know that you like me
How much, I'm not sure
I want to confess so bad
So please, just say it first
