Risk by Gracie Abrams

Artist: Gracie Abrams

Genre: Pop

Length: 3:11

In her upbeat track “Risk,” Gracie anxiously pleads for her the success of her romantic adventure. Singing in a cadence similar to a person in a panic attack, or simply confessing their love, she outlines the risks associated with her pursuing this fling, and mentions how no matter what, she wants to be in a relationship with them. This song signals a shift in Gracie’s attitudes toward relationships and her self-image. In previous tracks from her debut album, Good Riddance, she continuously ...

Risk lyrics

Look at me now
Said I wouldn't do it, but I hunted you down
Know you had a girl, but it didn't work out
Know you bought a house, but you had to move out, and
I'm not proud
Guess I'm just scared of you shootin' it down
You can just talk, and I'll stare at your mouth
You could be bad, but I wanna find out and
And I wake up in the middle of the night
With the light on, and I feel like I could die
'Cause you're not here, and it don't feel right
'Cause you're not here
God, I'm actually invested
Haven't even met him
Watch this be the wrong thing, classic
God, I'm jumpin' in the deep end
It's more fun to swim in
Heard the risk is drowning, but I'm gonna take it
I'm gonna take it
Oh, whoa-oh
Isn't it fun thinkin' I'm right when I'm probably wrong?
Holding my breath like I met someone
Knowing damn well that I haven't been touched by you
In my head, you're in the car, and you're comin' to me
And you get to my door, and you can't even speak
But I think that it's sweet, yeah, I think that you're sweet
And I wake up (I wake up) in the middle of the night (night)
With the light on, and you're not here
God, I'm actually invested
Haven't even met him
Watch this be the wrong thing, classic
God, I'm jumpin' in the deep end
It's more fun to swim in
Heard the risk is drowning, but I'm gonna take it
I'm gonna bend 'til I break
And you'll be my favorite mistake
I wish you could hold me, here shakin'
You're the risk, I'm gonna take it
Why aren't you here in my bedroom?
Hopelessly boring without you
Too soon to tell you "I love you"
Too soon to tell you "I love you!"
God, I'm actually invested
Think I really want this
I'm not even kidding
No, I'm actually invested
Haven't even met yet
Wish that I was kidding, I'm not and I hate it
God, I'm actually invested
Haven't even met yet
Watch this be the wrong thing, classic
God, I'm jumpin' in the deep end
It's more fun to swim in
Heard the risk is drowning, but I'm gonna take it (oh, oh, oh)
I'm gonna take it
Heard the risk is drowning, but I'm gonna take it (oh, oh, oh)
Too soon to tell you "I love you"
Too soon to tell you "I love you"
Too soon to tell you "I love you"
You're the risk, I'm gonna take it
