Backslide - Twenty One Pilots

I don't wanna...

Rat race, place to place, adding weight
Tendencies on repeat, innit
Benefit from a shoe with no lace
Take the seat with the crease in it

I don't mind if it's lonely
I don't mind if it's fair
I don't care, you control me
Leading me anywhere

I don't wanna backslide to where I started from
There's no chance I will shake this again
'Cause I feel the pull, water's over my head
Strength enough for one more time
Reach my hand above the tide
I'll take anything you have
If you could throw me a line
I should've loved you better
Do you think that now's the time
You should let go?
It's over my head

Bad place on a hundred dollar bass
Kind of wishing that I never did Saturday
Is that a stain? You should change
Are you doing good? Did you solve all of your problems?
Thanks for asking, in a way but
Accidentally uncovered a new one yesterday
What happened to what I brushed under the rug
I used to be the champion of a world you can't see
Now I'm drowning in logistics

I don't wanna backslide to where I started from
There's no chance I will shake this again
'Cause I feel the pull, water's over my head
Strength enough for one more time
Reach my hand above the tide
I'll take anything you have
If you could throw me a line
I should've loved you better
Do you think that now's the time
You should let go?

I don't mind if it's lonely (It's over my head)
I don't mind if it's fair (You should let go)
I don't care, you control me (It's over my head)
Leading me anywhere

I'll take anything you have
If you could throw me a line
I should've loved you better
Do you think that now's the time
You should let go?
It's over my head
You should let go
It's over my head

I don't wanna backslide
