Slipping

by O'Brother

on You and I (2020)

[Verse 1]
You're a place I cannot leave
A space I cannot see
A pitfall underneath
I, I, I'm slipping
You're a poison in my teeth
A tongue I cannot speak
A pitfall underneath
I, I, I'm slipping

[Chorus]
(Devil in your bed)
I'm pulling punches instead of getting even
(Devil in your bed)
I'm pulling punches instead of just leaving

[Verse 2]
You're loss I cannot grieve
A truth I disbelieve
A pitfall underneath
I, I, I'm slipping
It's a tangled web we weave
Drunk on pleasantries
A pitfall underneath
I, I, I'm slipping

[Chorus]
(Devil in your bed)
I'm pulling punches instead of getting even
(Devil in your bed)
I'm pulling punches instead of just leaving
(Devil in your bed)
I'm pulling punches instead of getting even
(Devil in your bed)
I'm pulling punches instead of just leaving

[Bridge]
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
I, I, I'm slipping
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
I, I, I'm slipping
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
I, I, I'm slipping
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
I, I, I'm slipping

[Chorus]
(Devil in your bed)
I'm pulling punches instead of getting even
(Devil in your bed)
I'm pulling punches instead of just leaving
(Devil in your bed)
I'm pulling punches instead of getting even
(Devil in your bed)
I'm pulling punches instead of just leaving
(Devil in your bed)
I'm pulling punches instead of getting even
(Devil in your bed)
