I remember what you say to me
When you sat me down when I was seventeen
Too young to understand it then
As you laid out all that I could be

Do you know that feeling drownin' underwater
All I need is you but I can't even call ya
The dirt on my skin got me feeling like I'll never be clean
Getting all too familiar with going under
Blacking out every night just to feel numb, yeah
The hurt in my life always putting me back at my knees, oh

Even when I've been out all night
Even when I'm fuckin' up my life
Even when I'm losing my mind
I know that good things take time
And if you ask me then I'm alright
I'll cover up my shit with more lies
The truth is some days I wanna die
But the good things take time

Sometimes you'll find me screaming at the sky
How could you leave me here, please just tell me why
(Just tell me why)
But I remember what you said to me
Every word it burns this fire in memories

Do you know that feeling drownin' underwater
All I need is you, but I can't even call ya
The dirt on my skin got me feeling like I'll never be clean, oh

Even when I've been out all night
Even when I'm fuckin' up my life
Even when I'm losing my mind
I know that good things take time
(I know that good things take time)
And if you ask me then I'm alright
I'll cover up my shit with more lies
The truth is some days I wanna die
But the good things take time
(But the good things take time)

Oh, oh oh, oh oh oh
Oh, oh oh, oh oh oh

Always chasing after the quick highs
But the good things take time
(But the good things take time)

Oh, oh oh, oh oh oh
Oh, oh oh, oh oh oh
Oh, oh oh

So even when I've been up all night
Even when I'm fuckin' up my life
Even when I'm losing my mind
I know that good things take time

Even when I've been out all night
(Even when I've been out all night)
Even when I'm fuckin' up my life
(Even when I'm fuckin' up my life)
Even when I'm losing (my mind), I'm losing my mind
(I know that good things take time) oh, oh oh
(And if you ask me then I'm alright) I'm alright
(I'll cover up my shit with more lies) more lies
The truth is some days I wanna die
(The truth is some days I wanna die)
(But the good things take time) things take time

Oh, oh oh, oh oh oh
Good things take time
Oh, oh oh, oh oh oh
Good things take time
Good things take time
Good things take time

Oh, oh oh, oh oh oh
Good things take time
Oh, oh oh, oh oh oh
Good things take time
Oh, oh

The good things take time
