[Chorus]
You and me are hell-bent on heartbreak
No matter what ya say
Won't let you run away
Don't act like loving me is such a bad thing
No matter what ya say

[Verse 1]
Let's get this right don't take it slow
Let's not pretend we've never met before
Cause baby this love is something we both know
But it's been trapped in a cage like an animal

[Pre-Chorus]
And now we're dancing under streetlights
Drunk on twilight
You say yours when I'm calling you mine
See your name in the sidewalk cracks
Wanna be anywhere you're at
All I ever really need is you
And this time we're gonna see this through
So if we ever lose our way again
Take my hand we'll make it back

[Chorus]
You and me are hell-bent on heartbreak
No matter what ya say
Won't let you run away
Don't act like loving me is such a bad thing
No matter what ya say
Won't let you run away
Won't let you run away

[Verse 2]
I told myself it would be alright
But you lurk in the shadows deep inside my mind
I couldn't escape all the memories
Stuck in my head like pretty melodies

[Pre-Chorus]
And now we're dancing under streetlights
Drunk on twilight
You say yours when I'm calling you mine
See your name in the sidewalk cracks
Wanna be anywhere you're at
All I ever really need is you
And this time we're gonna see this through
So if we ever lose our way again
Take my hand we'll make it back

[Chorus]
You and me are hell-bent on heartbreak
No matter what ya say
Won't let you run away
Don't act like loving me is such a bad thing
No matter what ya say
Won't let you run away
Won't let you run away

[Bridge]
Used to be just me and you
Acting like we couldn't lose
Let's do the things we used to do
If you're the fire, I'm the fuel
Just like when our love was new

[Chorus]
You and me are hell-bent on heartbreak
No matter what ya say
Won't let you run away
Don't act like loving me is such a bad thing
No matter what ya say
Won't let you run away
You and me are hell-bent on heartbreak
No matter what ya say
Won't let you run away
Don't act like loving me is such a bad thing
No matter what ya say
Won't let you run away
Won't let you run away
Won't let you run away
Won't let you run away
Won't let you run away

Against the Current is a Pop-Rock band from Poughkeepsie, New York, that formed in 2011. It consists of lead singer Chrissy Costanza, guitarist/backing vocalist Dan Gow, and drummer Will Ferri.

Initally, they began as a cover band, gaining popularity on YouTube. They set to release a debut EP, Infinity and an acoustic EP containing the same songs. After its unexpected success, the band applied the same formula; they released their EP Gravity and they followed it with an acoustic session with the same songs.

Against the Current’s sound fell more on the pop side of the spectrum when they were signed to Fueled By Ramen in 2015 and released their debut full album In Our Bones.
