Lyrics:

This isn’t what I paid for

You want to run away
But where we grew is home to me
Feeling safe in my own town
And finding comfort with my friends
They say this town is fucked up
And torn to pieces
You're set to sail
But you're destined for a shipwreck

And I'll take my time
So I don't fuck up these second chances
Don't chase time
There’s nothing to live up to
But I still stood dry
Instead of pushing myself in the water
So I'll live on the sand
While you drown under the water

I'll lift you up but you look right through me
You took me by surprise, when you left me out to dry
Thoughts of what’s ahead make moments roll by
Sirens keep me static while you flow with traffic

I take it back, you're just a friend with no connection
And just remember I'm the one that tried to hold you back
I take it back, you’re just a friend with no connection
And just remember that this isn’t what I paid for
