In Too Deep Lyrics
They only shine a light on notoriety
So sometimes, I forget what's inside of me
And when I lose my mind, I do it quietly, oh, oh
And maybe it's just my anxiety
Or my lack of overall sobriety
But why don't you come over and get high with me? Oh, oh
[Pre-Chorus: Andrew Taggart]
I know you're getting tired of this
And I know you never asked for it
[Chorus: Andrew Taggart]
But I'm in too deep and I need a way out
You're the only way out
So please just say you're coming over right now
Come over right now
Take you back to my hometown
Make my parents proud
'Cause I'm in too deep and I need a way out
You're the only way out
[Verse 2: Andrew Taggart]
You were always morе than a friend to me
Baby, pull me closеr than your enemies
And if you gotta lie, do it beside of me, oh, oh
You're the only one who sees me honestly
Love don't last forever, so promise me
That you'll come on over and get high with me, oh, oh
I know you're getting tired of this
And I know you never asked for it
[Chorus: Andrew Taggart & Chloe George]
But I'm in too deep and I need a way out
You're the only way out (Only way out)
So please just say you're coming over right now
Come over right now (Over right now)
Take you back to my hometown
Make my parents proud (Eh, eh, eh)
'Cause I'm in too deep and I need a way out
You're the only way out (You're the only way out, yeah)
[Post-Chorus: Chloe George]
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
[Outro: Chloe George]
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
(Eh, eh, eh)
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
(You're the only way, you're the only way out)
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
(Woo hoo, hoo, hoo-oh, hoo, hoo)
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
(Woo hoo, hoo, hoo-oh, hoo, hoo)
About
The eleventh track off of The Chainsmokers' fourth studio album, So Far So Good, “In Too Deep” takes a tonal divergence from the rest of the album. Primarily a ballad with electronic flourishes, the song explores a strained relationship that the narrator knows is good for him, even if he’s not good for his partner.
The song is notable as the only track on the entirety of the album to feature vocals from anyone other than The Chainsmokers' frontman, Drew Taggart. Toward the latter half of the song, uncredited vocals from singer-songwriter Chloe George are featured.
The song was first revealed prior to the album’s release on April 18, 2022, through a Living Room Session performance on the duo’s YouTube channel.
