lyrics

Self taught
I used to write down stories only for the love
Two years deep
Friends turning green
Now it’s whatever fills the page
Come down
Face the knife gently
The blade doesn’t need you long
Brand new scars to paint the wall
The present tense keeping me sane

I gave you this love
Grateful, you know what I want from you
I need you soft and at arms length

No one is going to save you
You do this alone
(Act like you miss me
I’ve been waiting on you)
No one is going to save you
You do this alone
(Act like you miss me
don’t take me for a fool)
I’ve been waiting to talk to you
Meet me half way through, what do you say?
What a way to endure life
Low, alone, you’re out of time

Self harm
Self destructive habits are ruining the touch
No words for you, or none from the heart
I’m stuck, starving for notes

You wasted the love, clear cut
I don’t ask any from you
You waste my love and beg to be saved in the end

No one is going to save you
You do this alone
(Act like you miss me
I’ve been waiting on you)
No one is going to save you
You do this alone
(Act like you miss me
don’t take me for a fool)
I’ve been waiting to talk to you
Meet me half way through, what do you say?
What a way to endure life
Low, alone, you’re out of time

Low, alone, and out of time

No one is going to save you
You do this alone
(Act like you miss me
I’ve been waiting on you)
No one is going to save you
You do this alone
(Act like you miss me
don’t take me for a fool)
I’ve been waiting to talk to you
Meet me half way through, what do you say?
What a way to endure life
Low, alone, you’re out of time
