Things I (Don’t) Want

[Verse 1]
Taking a step back just to get where I want to be
To go full speed ahead just to stop dead
Why does it feel right when everything
Is melting through my hands?

[Pre-Chorus]
And I'll be there
When the lights go down in the back
When I'm all alone
And I hope that you'll be there

[Chorus]
Hold me close, pull me in, take a shot now
I'll be the one left over
All alone in the night, can't you see me
Standing here?
Am I there just because that's something?
I'll be the one left over
So alive in the night, now you see me
Standing here tonight

[Verse 2]
What is the point when I feel like giving up
Just giving up?
(On the edge, this is the end)
I'm just trying to impress you
But still you see straight through
(So why does it feel right when everything)
Keeps falling through the cracks?

[Pre-Chorus]
And I'll be there
When the lights go down in the back
When I'm all alone
And I hope that you'll be there

[Chorus]
Hold me close, pull me in, take a shot now
I'll be the one left over
All alone in the night, can't you see me
Standing here?
Am I there just because that's something?
I'll be the one left over
So alive in the night, now you see me
Standing here tonight

[Bridge]
(Tonight, tonight)
You can't catch me
(Tonight, tonight)
We will run free
(Tonight, tonight)
You can't catch me
(Tonight, tonight, tonight)

[Chorus
Hold me close, pull me in, take a shot now
'Cause I'll be the one left over
All alone in the night, can't you see me
Standing here?
Am I there just because that's something?
'Cause I'll be the one left over
So alive in the night, now you see me
Standing here tonight
Tonight
