I jumped the gun,
way too many times to count
but everytime that I did I let myself down,
and it got to the point where,
that was ok by me.
But then I got to the point where,
I should probably start to think
about myself
before I determine what's so hazardous
for everyone else.

Hold up, Wait Up,
Wait a minute so I can
Stop this, and halt this,
before this gets all out of hand.
And I'm not trying to,
I just know that I'm going to.
So when I come to my senses
Don't say that I didn't warn you.

And I control myself worse than anyone.
That's probably, most likely,
something that I should work on.
I hold on, more than anyone would ever know.
I've got this mental grip
that doesn't know how to let
anything go.

Hold up, Wait Up,
Wait a minute so I can
Stop this, and halt this,
before this gets all out of hand.
And I'm not trying to,
I just know that I'm going to.
So when I come to my senses
Don't say that I didn't warn you.

Hold up, take this as your warning.
I've never been to good at verbalizing warnings.
All my life, everybody tried to warn me,
but this has warn me out.
Wore me out, cut me down

and you whittled away at my heart,
from the start, but not in a bad way.
Wore me out, cut me down from the middle,
little by little, little by little.
Wore me out, cut me down
and you whittled away at my heart,
from the start, but not in a bad way.
Wore me out, cut me down from the middle,
little by little, little by little.

Hold up, Wait Up,
Wait a minute so I can
Stop this, and halt this,
before this gets all out of hand.
And I'm not trying to,
I just know that I'm going to.
So when I come to my senses
Don't say that I didn't warn you.
