Rollercoaster

Oh, I fell

I took a breath and introduced myself

Was climbing ladders and I don't do well

With no shoes on the ground

I'm thinking it was love I felt

And in the story that I tell myself

We had a mutual and grown-up

Healthy end jump to us now

It wouldn't be a story of regret

But when you said you're fine, that really doesn't mean yes

Called to say you love me, now you're calling me ex

I should've gotten good at reading little white lies, lies, lies

That time

I heard you say forever, it was on the pretense

That I was still the guy to put the beat in your chest

And though I'm not the person that you wanted

I tried, tried, tried

Was my rose a thorn in your side?

I glitter like gold 'til you opened your eyes

Pull me closer, maybe you're right

But I'll deny it

Roller coaster, give me a ride

Grip my soul 'til your knuckles turn white

Oh, I know you'll leave me behind

You're sick of riding

That roller coaster

(That roller coaster)

That roller coaster

I lost some days

And I've been rolling out of bed so late

I ain't been talking too much

I'm grabbing at nothing

Baby, it's all my fault I'm scared of waking up

Your words, I feel 'em filling up my brain

But the gravity is strong

Don't bring me down

Don't bring me down

And I remember when I saw you last

Lighting up the room, I think you got your life back

I've seen you smile bright, but never really like that

'Cause that was when I noticed there's a guy at your side, side, side

And I

I hope he makes you happy, hope you're on the right path

I hope he gives you everything, I hope you might last

And most of all, I hope you're not forgetting

Our ride, ride, ride

Was my rose a thorn in your side?

I glitter like gold 'til you opened your eyes

Pull me closer, maybe you're right

But I'll deny it

Roller coaster, give me a ride

Grip my soul 'til your knuckles turn white

Oh, I know you'll leave me behind

You're sick of riding

That roller coaster

(That roller coaster)

That roller coaster

Was my rose a thorn in your side?

I glitter like gold 'til you opened your eyes

Pull me closer, maybe you're right

But I'll deny it

Roller coaster, give me a ride

Grip my soul 'til your knuckles turn white

Oh, I know you'll leave me behind

You're sick of riding
