Scratch the surface, if you're still afraid to dive
Don't be nervous, we're two wrongs that make a right
Close the curtains, tell the world to stay outside
Be uncertain, let this all stay undefined
I hung a thousand pictures on the wall because I knew I'd need
A thousand words a thousand times to say all the things you mean to me
('Cause we've found) a way to Eden but it's just the long way around
Found a hope that floated then we ran it aground
(So come down) I'm done chasing angels with my head in the clouds
Cause you're not that perfect but you're coming around
While I'm breaking you down
You can't be everything I need
I'm your danger, I'm what makes you come alive
I'm your chaser when your chest is filled with fire
The exception to rules you swore were ironclad
I'm the best bad influence that you have ever had
Never the charming caricature, I'm the sand that's still between your toes
From when you left your high heels in the trunk and got ocean on your Sunday clothes
('Cause we've found) a way to Eden but it's just the long way around
Found a hope that floated then we ran it aground
(So come down) I'm done chasing angels with my head in the clouds
Cause you're not that perfect but you're coming around
While I'm breaking you down
You can't be everything I need
Girl, I promise you when it's said and done
That there is nothing you could do to change this love
Robe and slippers, sipping coffee from behind
Picket fences, maybe somewhere down the line
But tonight there's a tree we haven't climbed
A back road we need to drive and a devil in your eyes
('Cause we've found) a way to Eden but it's just the long way around
Found a hope that floated then we ran it aground
(So come down) I'm done chasing angels with my head in the clouds
Cause you're not that perfect but you're coming around
While I'm breaking you down
You can't be everything I need
But right now that's all I want to believe
