I jumped the gun,
way too many times to count but everytime that I did I let
myself down,
and it got to the point where,
that was ok by me.
But then I
got to the point where,
I should probably start to think
about myself
before I determine
what's so hazardous for everyone else.
[Chorus]
Hold up, Wait Up,
Wait a minute so I can
Stop this, and Halt this,
before this gets all
out of hand.
And I'm not trying to,
I just know that I'm going to.
So when
I come to my senses don't say that
I didn't warn you.
And I control myself
worse than anyone.
That's probably, most likely,
something that I should work on.
I hold on, more than anyone would ever know.
I've got this mental grip
that doesn't know how to let anything go.
[chorus]
Hold up, take this as
your warning.
I've never been to good
at verbalizing warnings.
All my life,
everybody tried to warn me
but this has warn me out.
Wore me out, cut me
down and you whittled away
at my heart, from the start,
but not in a bad way.
Wore me out,
cut me down from the middle,
little by little.
[chorus]
