Don't Let Them Drag You Back Down
I can hear it outside of my window
But I know what to do
Lights are going dark
But the beat of your heart
Is the rhythm I can lock into
Mass-market martyrs, all tied into knots
You and I can disappear
If we get tangled, if we get caught
Don't tell them what they want to hear
Hey, you're doing great, kid
Don't let them drag you back down
Oh, they want to
They want to
Let them all throw themselves from their windows
Let them crash to the ground
If they're not yours or mine
I just don't have the time
I don't need anybody else around
Hollowed-out hitmen are taking their shot
You and I should just stay clear
But if they come knocking, if we get caught
Don't tell them what they want to hear
Hey, you're doing great, kid
Don't let them drag you back down
Oh, they want to
They want to
Yeah, they want to
They want to
But I want you
But I know what to do
Lights are going dark
But the beat of your heart
Is the rhythm I can lock into
Mass-market martyrs, all tied into knots
You and I can disappear
If we get tangled, if we get caught
Don't tell them what they want to hear
Hey, you're doing great, kid
Don't let them drag you back down
Oh, they want to
They want to
Let them all throw themselves from their windows
Let them crash to the ground
If they're not yours or mine
I just don't have the time
I don't need anybody else around
Hollowed-out hitmen are taking their shot
You and I should just stay clear
But if they come knocking, if we get caught
Don't tell them what they want to hear
Hey, you're doing great, kid
Don't let them drag you back down
Oh, they want to
They want to
Yeah, they want to
They want to
But I want you
