Round of applause You win Who wants to be here again Alone with your thoughts In some town The architecture Is staring me down Staring me down You think You think I'm done I'm dethroned An anonymous tip Led me here To your home Fake laugh Face facts I drown The water is silent And staring me down Staring me down You've been plotting the same mistakes that I've been swerving around And every location can't replace it Walls start building around And staring me down Staring me down You're staring me You're staring me Down Down Down You're staring me You're staring me You're staring me Down Down Down Down Round of applause You win Round of applause You win this time

Round of applause You win Who wants to be here again Alone with your thoughts In some town The architecture Is staring me down Staring me down You think You think I'm done I'm dethroned An anonymous tip Led me here To your home Fake laugh Face facts I drown The water is silent And staring me down Staring me down You've been plotting the same mistakes that I've been swerving around And every location can't replace it Walls start building around And staring me down Staring me down You're staring me You're staring me Down Down Down You're staring me You're staring me You're staring me Down Down Down Down Round of applause You win Round of applause You win this time

Nothing close to what's happening Is ever happening like you When you stood there and asked me for a light I had nothing to offer you But you stood there and smiled Disarmed me easily And I fell head to boots And I missed every hint Right til the moment that you kissed me I'm a fool You would sing and get shy When I was watching How I loved those pretty tunes When we'd sit there and cry We cry so easily Like nothing's left to lose When I'd hold you It felt like the world was ending That became more and more true And as it crumbled outside The only thing that I was holding back Was you Was you I just want you to know I just want you to know That nothing close to what's happening Is ever happening like you That nothing close to what's happening Is ever happening like you
