But as I'm waiting there
The devil on my shoulder stares
Laughing that the one thing I can't get
Is what I need

She
She is the words that I can't find
How can the only thing that's killing me
Make me feel so alive

And I couldn't speak
I couldn't breathe to save my life
All of my chances swim
Like sinking ships
This time I think I'll drown or make her mine

My vocal chords have been fighting
My mouth likes to spite me
It never says the words that come to mind
I brought a stick to a gun fight
And I'm stuck with my tongue tied
I run but I can't hide what's always there is

She
She is the words that I can't find
How can the only thing that's killing me
Make me feel so alive

And I couldn't speak
I couldn't breathe to save my life
All of my chances swim
Like sinking ships
This time I think I'll drown or make her mine
