You Go First - Clint Lowery

I build you up, I help you stand

I weather all your cruel demands

I’m terrified of every word

My anxious heart is on the mend

But here I am right back again

This beating heart is not your friend

But that’s you

That’s so you

You go first

It’s not my loss

You go first

And I’ll go on

I know you won’t let go of this now

So close your mind 'til it hurts

What’s good for you is killing me

The choice is yours and I’m a slave

I realize it’s only a phase

And you eat this up

Oh that’s enough

God knows I’m falling short

That’s you

That’s so you

We all give up, a part of us

You go first

It’s not my loss

You go first

And I’ll go on

I know you won’t let go of this now

So close your mind 'til it hurts

Whatever gives you what you need to live

Whatever you say, whatever you say here

We tear apart the closest ones to our hearts

It’s not my loss

You go first

It’s not my loss

You go first

And I’ll go on

I know you won’t let go of this now

So close your mind 'til it hurts
