Lyrics from Livestream

Verse 1
You called me
You started it, you authored it
I joined you
You brought us here, you brought me here

Pre-Chorus
And I guess I could've seen it coming, none of my friends every cheered you on
When I walked back every awful thing I said about you dragging me along

Chorus
So where are you now the clouds rolled away
I'm parked in your corner, bet you can't say the same
Wish that I listened, wish that I stopped once you started again
I'm up to bat, but you're still on the fence
Some defender you make

Verse 2
I wrote you
A letter once, you taped it up
Waters rise
And the rain pours, I'm on the shore

Pre-Chorus
Just because I thought that we'd be different if i stuck it out unlike the rest
Even I cannot tell if it was love or if I'm just competitive

Chorus
'Cause you'd fight it out with an idea of me
Keep it all to yourself while I sit here wondering
Wish you were honest, wish you would let me inside of your head
I go up to bat, but you're still on the fence
Some defender you make
