It’s a stare down
I don’t want to blink first
It’s a stare down
I don’t want to think first
I can’t look away, I can’t take a drink
I’m afraid I’ll die of thirst
It’s a stare down
I don’t want to blink first

It’s plain enough that I want to be your man
But you led me on so watch me rub your face in the sand
And we’ll see who’s crying when your head is buried in your hands
It’s a stare down, been going since the world began

You’re a bitch babe, and I breathe with your every word
Your silence is the loudest I’ve ever heard
You’re a cheap thrill and your kiss only leaves me disturbed
You’re a chair away, too far to be on earth

Oh you’d take the highway
It’s free and you don’t care
Don’t forget to bow when you leave it in disrepair
You're high society and you're stepping on people's hair
You’re a cheat babe, any man will take you there

It’s a stare down
I don’t want to blink first
It’s a stare down
I don’t want to think first
Well I can’t take a hint, you’ve gotta spell it out
Don’t act like you’re never heard
It’s a stare down
I don’t want to blink first
It’s a stare down
I don’t want to blink first
