Battleship

You cant pretend that you didnt drag me down
And now you must realize that I havent been around
to witness your mistakes or your biggest fall
and to see the look on your face as you called
for my help but I was nowhere to be found
and I guess you were stuck there lying on the ground

When you feel the pressure rising up
Take a step back just in case you slip
You've let me crawl through your fingertips
just as my fire sunk your battleship
(Chorus)

Now that I dont think of you at all, I'm fine
My thoughts are all the same but you're not inside
and now I cant think of anything else to say
but what you dont realize is I'm so far away
You're still running down the same dead-end street
It's all because you cant let go of me.

-Chorus-

I bet you feel that burnt taste in your mouth
Do you even know what we talked about?
I bet you like it when I answer wrong
you're still smiling but you'll stop once I'm gone

-Chorus-(2x)
