The People Who Matter Most

you can't blame me when the words start coming oh, oh no
i have no control over that
my hands are tied around my back
and my lips start moving
twenty-six hours ago
i was on a flight back home
from miami international
twenty-seven hours ago
you were saying don't come home
don't you ever come back here

whoa you know that it's not me
it's whatever helps you sleep
you cut corners around this table
you wanna dance but you're just not able
you know that it's not me

we're not giving up tonight
we're not giving up this time
i know that somewhere i got
tired friends but their eyes are wide
ready to throw down at any time
we're not giving up
we're not giving up tonight

so wait for the come back or
wait to come to your senses
cause i can't be waiting on
you to finish what you started
you don't have to tell me
i already know
you're going to say
save your breath for the ones who matter most
you don't have to tell me
i already know
you're going to say
hold your breath, turn around and walk away

we're not giving up tonight
we're not giving up this time
i know that somewhere i got
tired friends but their eyes are wide
ready to throw down at any time
we're not giving up
we're not giving up tonight

we're not giving up tonight
we're not giving up this time
i know that somewhere i got
tired friends but their eyes are wide
ready to throw down at any time
we're not giving up
we're not giving up tonight

we're not giving up tonight
we're not giving up this time
i know that somewhere i got
tired friends but their eyes are wide
ready to throw down at any time
we're not giving up
we're not giving up tonight
