F#m      E                 B C#m F#m
Hold me down under the water
F#m       E                  C#m
You know well that I can't swim
F#m       E                 B C#m F#m
I'm not trying to be a martyr
F#m       E                C#m
Know that I won't let you in
C#m                     D
Safe and warm inside myself
C#m                            A
But you need more than someone else

Chorus:
           A              C#m
You need space, you need time
E                    B
You take yours and I'll take mine
       A   C#m              B
Come closer so I can be the one to push
          A             C#m
It's not me, it's just you
    E                     B
It doesn't mean shit when it falls through
 A         C#m        B                  A C#m B
Come closer so I can be the one to push you
B
The one to push

Hold me tight enough to kill me
Bite my tongue so I can't speak
Clip my wings so I can't fly
Bury me deep, but I won’t die
Was it worth it? (Worth it, worth it)

Chorus:
You need space, you need time
You take yours and I'll take mine
Come closer (Closer), so I can be the one to push
It's not me, it's just you
It doesn't mean shit when it falls through,
come closer (Closer)
So I can be the one to push you (Push you)
The one to push you (Push you)

         A                        F#m G#m
Guess I needed you enough not to notice
         A            E    F#m G#m
Guess I wanted you enough to lie
            A          E            F#m   G#m
There's so many faces, I should've known it
          A          E         F#m
But that sure was a beautiful disguise

Chorus:
You need space, you need time
You take yours and I'll take mine
Come closer, so I can be the one to push
It's not me, it's just you
It doesn't mean shit when it falls through,
come closer (Closer)
So I can be the one to push you (Push you)
Yeah
The one to push you (Push you)
The one to push you

Put our game in the past
We make love and we attack, let me hold you
So you can be the one to push back
