It's crowded out here
Not in the way you might've wanted
I'll cry and I'll cheer
To take up the space you told me to
And show my face
In a thousand ways
But where the hell do I look
When everybody does the same
Scared of every fall
Yet still you crave it all
You fight if off
You clear your name
You fall in love
Just to play the game
How are the odds
Are they worth your days
Is it worse to burn
Or to fade away
Take what's left
Whether you like it or not
You'll hide your breaths
So no else could count them for you
We say our names
In a million ways
But who's it all for
Is it all for your own sake
Praying to break the fall
Yet still you crave it all
You fight if off
You clear your name
You fall in love
Just to play the game
How are the odds
Are they worth your days
Is it worse to burn
Or to fade away
If I make a choice
Can I take it back
Would you forgive me
For what I didn't ask
How could I trade my breath
For a safer bet
I don't wanna choke
On what I never said
