lyrics
Sinking
Close your eyes just to find me
Blinking
Ain’t the same since you left me
Thinking
Bout the words that you tell me
Filtered thoughts all through my fears
Crawling
Time won’t end when you’re with me
Shrinking
From the way that I should be
Leaving
Cos it’s just not like me
To hold a grudge I think it’s clear
Drown yourself to take me down
I wanna be alone
Well you shoulda known
The only one
The setting sun
Heart in hand
This ain’t fun
Take our life
I’ll watch you run
Cos it’s hard enough to let this end
I never shoulda tried to pretend
Sinking
Lately I’m feeling blinded
Blinking
Once again undecided
Thinking
All the shit that you give me
Wears me down I’m paper thin
Crawling
What’s a toxic dependence
Stalling
On what’s left of my patience?
Falling
Face it there’s no more pretence
We’re all fucked I think it’s clear
Drown yourself to take me down
I wanna be alone
Well you shoulda known
The only one
The setting sun
Heart in hand
This ain’t fun
Take our life
I’ll watch you run
Cos it’s hard enough to let this end
I never shoulda tried to pretend
Growing pains
Never change
All the things we say
Slowly fade away
Growing pains
I’m really sick of you
Never change
I bet you are too
All the things we say
Another day of you
Slowly fade away
I need to break through
Growing pains
I’m really sick of you
Never change
I bet you are too
All the things we say
Slowly fade away
The only one
The setting sun
Heart in hand
This ain’t fun
Take our life
I’ll watch you run
Cos it’s hard enough to let this end
I never shoulda tried to pretend
