Give me your black lungs 
And your blue eyes 
And we'll trade them in for a new disguise 
Give me your best bet 
And your worst lie 
And we'll fill them in with a straighter line 
You could be everything I wanted 
If you just gave up on holding back 
And I’ve never lost so many words 
From kissing just one girl 
You’ve got potential 

Wait for it 
Wait for nights that compliment you 
Ignore the girls that just resent you 
It’s easier to pretend you don’t care at all 
Now wait for it 
Wait for boys that overwhelm you 
And tell them that you’re not that type of girl 
And you would rather sit and talk about your goals 

You give me black lungs 
And your blue eyes 
And we'll trade them in for a new disguise 
Give me your best bet 
And your worst lie 
And we'll fill them in with a straighter line 
You could be everything I wanted 
If you just gave up on holding back 
'Cause I never lost so many words 
From kissing just one girl 
You’ve got potential 

Wait for it 
Wait for nights that decimate you 
Wake up and then pray for saving 
Hope has never seemed so far away from you 
Now wait for it 
Wait for years to pass you by 
You’re looking back at all the times 
You wish you hadn’t compromised at all 

Well I tried 
Well I tried 
Well I tried to make you see 
That you lost reality somewhere 
I tried 

Give me your black lungs 
And your blue eyes 
And we'll trade them in for a new disguise 
Give me your best bet 
And your worst lie 
And we'll fill them in with a straighter line 
You could be everything I wanted 
If you just gave up on holding back 
And I’ve never lost so many words 
From kissing just one girl 
You’ve got potential
