Don’t bite your lip to hold back your smile 
Just think of this 
As bending the rules 
You’re walking a thin line 
Between me and what’s right 
This thread seems worn and frayed 
Don’t hide your face 
And cower behind 
A wall made up 
Of secrets and lies 
You can put it all on me 
But if this is what’s been wrong 
Then why is your hand in mine? 

One moment at a time 
With nothing but your eyes 
You make me scream 
Stop and let me breathe 
Regretting our first kiss 
Taste the poison on your lips 
Bloody and sweet 
Stop and let me breathe. 

This room is too cold to hold back your tears 
And your heart is too weak to wear on your sleeve 
If I’d allow myself to feel 
The things I know I should 
Then I might not be standing here 
My mind is busy trying to sort through your words 
Or lack thereof the ones that I want to hear 
I rip my heart up piece by piece 
To show you how I feel 
If I thought that you’d even care. 

One moment at a time 
With nothing but your eyes 
You make me scream 
Stop and let me breathe 
Regretting our first kiss 
Taste the poison on your lips 
Bloody and sweet 
Stop and let me breathe.

Oh god this poison’s spreading 
Can’t feel the ground beneath my feet 
My hands won’t stop shaking 
My legs are crippled from defeat 
My vision’s getting blurry 
My heart is breaking as you speak 
Won’t you listen to me? 
To me 
To me 

One moment at a time 
With nothing but your eyes 
You make me scream 
Stop and let me breathe 
Regretting our first kiss 
Taste the poison on your lips 
Bloody and sweet 
Stop and let me breathe.
