Assuming We Survive – Let You Down lyrics

[Verse 1]
And I can’t tell you I love you but
It’s still not enough
Fill my head with excuses
I know they’re all useless
Never at all

[Pre-Chorus]
So giving up or giving in
Crosses my mind
You’re letting go, falling slow
Giving you time
Nowhere to turn, nowhere to burn, no one is safe

[Chorus]
Is it okay if I let you down?
Though it’s not what I wanted
Guess I did somehow

[Verse 2]
And I could tell you I’m sorry but
It still doesn’t cut
Like the knife that I put in your back when you needed me
All of these lies, they just come so easily

[Pre-Chorus]
So giving up or giving in
Crosses your mind
You’re letting go, and falling slow
Taking your time
Nowhere to turn, nowhere to burn, no one is safe

[Chorus]
Is it okay if I let you down?
Though it’s not what I wanted
Guess I did somehow
Stuck in the worst of my ways
I hope I can change somehow
So it’s okay if you let me down

[Bridge]
I’m wishing I could be the one that you want
All that you need, all that I’m not
'Cause you’re honestly sweet and I’m obviously fucked
But you’re hurting and crying you’re all that I’ve got
If discovering love is not discovering me
Then cut off your anchor and sail off to sea
If this is goodbye just know that I’m sorry
Just know that I’m sorry

[Chorus]
Is it okay if I let you down?
Though it’s not what I wanted
Guess I did it somehow
Stuck in the worst of my ways
I hope I can change somehow
So it’s okay if you let me down
