"Referee" Lyrics

I never knew how much you're worth
Look I'm digging in the dirt
And I'm sorry that I messed with you
Girl, never wanted to exert my power just to hurt you

[Pre-chorus:]
who else around you's making promises
Do you see a checkered flag waving me in again
Don't slam the door on me communicate
I can't wait forever more
I'm through with this

[Chorus:]
Referee
Please help us get back on our feet
Open me up to her dreams
My heart has been starving for weeks
Referee

Tread on a lightly woven thread
There's a price up on my head
She's claiming independence
Sound, is the only way to ground her majesty's loose cannon

[Pre-chorus]

[Chorus x2]

She takes a Puff
Of that casual cigarette
It's her only friend
Gets back into bed
Let's just work it out
I can't feel doubt
We're falling out

Review the steps
That our friendly doctor set
Stop thinking with red
Don't go streaking bare
And respect me in front of others
And don't push me
Let's discover us all the way

[Chorus x2]

We gotto give it time
oh oh oh
We gotto give it time
oh oh oh [x2]
