Hit The Floor Lyrics

There are just too many times that people have tried to look inside of me

 Wondering what I think of you and I protect you out of courtesy

 Too many times that I’ve held on when I needed to push away

 Afraid to say what was on my mind afraid to say what I need to say

 Too many things that you've said about me when I’m not around

 You think having the upper hand means you gotta keep putting me down

 But I’ve had too many standoffs with you it’s about as much as I can stand

 And I'm waiting until the upper hand is mine

 

 [Chorus]

 (One minute you're on top)

 The next you're not watch it drop

 (Making your heart stop)

 Just before you hit the floor

 (One minute you're on top)

 Next you're not missed your shot

 (Making you're heart stop)

 You think you've won

 (And then its all gone)

 

 So many people like me put so much trust in all your lies

 So concerned with what you think to just say what we feel inside

 So many people like me walk on eggshells all day long

 All I know is that all I want is to feel like I’m not stepped on

 There are so many things you say that make me feel you've crossed the line

 What goes up will surely fall and I’m counting down the time

 Cause I’ve had so many standoffs with you it’s about as much as I can stand

 And I'm waiting until the upper hand is mine

 

 [Chorus]

 (One minute you're on top)

 The next you're not watch it drop

 (Making your heart stop)

 Just before you hit the floor

 (One minute you're on top)

 Next you're not missed your shot

 (Making you're heart stop)

 You think you've won

 (And then its all gone)

 (And then it’s all gone)

 (And then its all gone)

 (And then it’s all gone)

 (Now it’s all gone)

 

 I know I’ll never trust a single thing you say

 You knew your lies would divide us but you lied anyway

 And all the lies have got you floating up above us all

 But what goes up has got to fall

 

 [Chorus]

 (One minute you're on top)

 The next you're not watch it drop

 (Making your heart stop)

 Just before you hit the floor

 (One minute you're on top)

 Next you're not missed your shot

 (Making you're heart stop)

 You think you've won

 (And then its all gone)

 (And then it’s all gone)

 (And then its all gone)

 (And then it’s all gone)

 (Now it’s all gone)
