Lyrics
I asked you to swallow your doubt
Chewed up and spit it out
Right at my feet
Quick to evolve and adapt
But now the beast is back
Tugging on your sleeve
Seems like a bad break
Caught on a worse day
You need to make a move
But everything’s gonna follow you
Do you want to get better
Or do you just want to be right
You saw the signs big and bright
And turned your knuckles white
Trying to pull away
You couldn’t stay
Never could say it out loud
Look where it got you now
Caught in this ricochet
You need to make a move
But everything’s gonna follow you
Do you want to get better
Or do you just want to be sort of all right
You need to make a move
Who’s gonna care if it follows you
Does it matter
If you get better
If you knew better
All along
