  • You're hiding something, 'cause it's burning through your eyes
    I try to get it out but all I hear from you are lies

    And I can tell you're going through the motions
    Figured you were acting out your part
    Once again, we're playing off emotion
    Which one of us will burn until the end?

    Catalyst, you insist to pull me down
    You contradict the fact that you still want me around
    And it's all downhill from here
    And it's all downhill from here

    Your good intentions slowly turn to bitterness (turn to bitterness)
    Reoccurring episodes with each and every kiss (let's go)

    And I can tell you're going through the motions
    Figured you were acting out your part
    Once again, we're playing off emotion
    Which one of us will burn until the end?

    Catalyst, you insist to pull me down
    You contradict the fact that you still want me around
    And it's all downhill from here
    And it's all downhill from here

    And I can't believe you pulled it off again
    Or noticed till it all sets in
    You'll deny it till you're at your bitter end

    And I can tell you're going through the motions
    Figured you were acting out your part
    Once again, we're playing off emotion
    Which one of us will burn until the end?

    Catalyst, you insist to pull me down
    You contradict the fact that you still want me around
    And it's all downhill from here
    And it's all downhill from here (and you keep pulling me down)

    Pulling me down, pulling me down
    You contradict the fact that you still want me around
    And it's all downhill from here
    And it's all downhill from here Writer/s: Chad Everett Gilbert, Cyrus William Bolooki, Ian R Grushka, Jordan I Pundik, Stephen Lee Klein
