I The Mighty – Playing Catch With .22 lyrics
[Verse 1]
I've been thinking back to when we used to share a drink on midnight walks
When you'd pretend your winter breath was cigarette smoke in your lungs
I'd fight the urge to give you all the worst advice about the ones you liked
(You called it chemistry, I called it earning bragging rights)
Knowing damn well if I told you how I felt, I'd crack the ice
Roll the dice

[Chorus]
You're just a second away from being in love or alone
What you don't know
Is that each second you waste is a breath you don't take
It's a moment you wasted

[Verse 2]
I've been thinking back to that night on your front step when I held you as you wept
We sat awhile in silence, but I was screaming in my head
How to tell you, if I should
What to say, if I even could
And if that moment came, would it simply hang forever?
So I always try to live vicariously through my friends
(You call it chemistry, I call it perfect timing instead)
Watching all them fall in love, and wondering if I will again

[Chorus]
You're just a second away from being in love or alone
What you don't know
Is that each second you waste is a breath you don't take
It's a moment you wasted

[Bridge]
You're playing catch with .22
For once it's out you've got to choose
But if you choose to hold it in
Then where's the chance to begin new love?
Who knows, maybe she's the one
I bet there's so many more than just the one

[Chorus]
You're just a second away from being in love or alone
What you don't know
Is that each second you waste is a breath you don't take
It's a moment you wasted

[Outro]
Just falling asleep with you is enough to keep me hanging on
Whether or not we ever evolve
If all that we are is paint on a wall, waiting to peel off
Then poison the well and pour me a cup, drink up
