Lyrics:

Never thought that we would end up here
Should’ve known it from the start
I know you mean it when you say you love me
But we’re trying way too hard

Used to think that we would last forever
How could I’ve been so wrong?
Never thought I’d be the one to say this
What if our time has come and gone?

You, you don’t mean no harm
But you’re stringin’ me along and I don’t have the time to spare
And I, I’m trying hard to breathe
But you’re suffocating me, this time I’m coming up for air

Air, air, air, air, air, air
Air-air-air-air-air-air-air-air

Always try’na put your two cents in
Then expecting me to change
Tried to fix me up but I’m not broken
All you do is leave me stained

Told you not to tie me down too quickly
Take it slow, it’s not a race
And you keep on try’na reel me in but
All I really need is space

You, you don’t mean no harm
But you’re stringin’ me along and I don’t have the time to spare
And I, I’m trying hard to breathe
But you’re suffocating me, this time I’m coming up for air

Air, air, air, air, air, air
Air-air-air-air-air-air-air-air
Air, air, air, air, air, air
Air-air-air-air-air-air-air-air

Trying to hold me down but I’m surfacing
It’s hard to let you go but I gotta leave

You, you don’t mean no harm
But you’re stringin’ me along and I don’t have the time to spare
And I, I’m trying hard to breathe
But you’re suffocating me, I’m coming up for air

You, you don’t mean no harm
But you’re stringin’ me along and I don’t have the time to spare
And I, I’m trying hard to breathe (I’m trying hard to breathe)
But you’re suffocating me, this time I’m coming up for air

Air, air, air, air, air, air
Air-air-air-air-air-air-air-air
Air, air, air, air, air, air
Air-air-air-air-air-air-air-air
