[Verse 1]
You know it scares me but I ain't gonna leave
I just got a few things I really need
To get off of my chest and out of my head
'Cause lately, I'm barely breathing

[Verse 2]
And all of this pressure, I can't help but feel
It probably won't end well if I don't get real
Everybody wants something and then they want more
I can't shoulder it anymore

[Chorus]
Been white-knuckled, just hanging on for dear life
Meanwhile the clock's like a thief in the night
Maybe tomorrow, I'll finally decide
To slow it all down while I still got time

[Verse 3]
I'll hold a job down but you hold my hеart
You know my intention, my every scar
I got to gеt back to what once was a fire
Nothing means more than this love of ours

[Chorus]
I've been white-knuckled, just hanging on for dear life
Meanwhile the clock's like a thief in the night
Maybe tomorrow, I'll finally decide
To slow it all down while I still got time
[Bridge]
What's it all worth, living like this?
And missing the beautiful moments life has to give us

[Chorus]
I've been white-knuckled, just hanging on for dear life
I've been white-knuckled, just hanging on for dear life
Meanwhile the clock's like a thief in the night
Maybe tomorrow, I'll finally decide
To slow it all down while I still got time
While I still got time, time, time, time
