Intro:
“You and I walk a fragile line, I have known it all this time
But I never thought I'd live to see it break
It's getting dark and it's all too quiet and I can't trust anything now
And it's coming over you like it's all a big mistake
Holding my breath
Won't lose you again
Something's made your eyes go cold”
Verse 1:
A thread connected two hearts til it was frayed and broke
Now what's left is four gla**y eyes and two choking throats
And a couple salty water-soaked pillows
Submerged beneath a wave of sorrow forcing both below
She's sinking deeper, tired of the pain that he left in his wake
He's barely treading and regretting every harsh mistake
His body shakes, face twisted with rage
Red walls, bloody knuckles, heartbreak left stains
She's winded and her lungs are so confused
The air he once provided has been suddenly removed
He couldn't handle the heat, but she wanted a fire
All he gave was icy feet and unfulfilled desires so she sings
Hook:
“Come on, come on, don't leave me like this
I thought I had you figured out
Something's gone terribly wrong
You're all, I, wanted
Come on, come on, don't leave me like this
I thought I had you figured out
Can't breathe whenever you're gone
Can't turn, back, now I'm haunted”
Verse 2:
The relational foundation built over four years was decimated
They used to feel their heart spark so strong
Electricity went missing so quickly like Nikky Tesla fainted
Lifeline unplugged so long
To the late night conversations, they spent their Daylight Saving for
Tip-toeing upstairs as if pacing on a caving floor
“never before were two souls bonded like this”
That's what she told herself but he wasn't fond of such a tight grip
He wanted freedom but to her that's what he was and so now
His absence happens to entrap her like the fuzz, and the ground
Comes up to meet her as her knees fall down to meet it
Sobbin and defeated, oxygen depleted
Yea she's winded and her lungs are so confused
The air he once provided has been suddenly removed
He couldn't handle the heat, but she wanted a fire
All he gave was icy feet and unfulfilled desires so she sings
Hook:
“Come on, come on, don't leave me like this
I thought I had you figured out
Something's gone terribly wrong
You're all, I, wanted
Come on, come on, don't leave me like this
I thought I had you figured out
Can't breathe whenever you're gone
Can't turn, back, now I'm haunted”
Verse 3:
A pair of aviators to cover her teary gaze
A savior? maybe later, too afraid of being saved
Cause presently salvation would be to gaze at his face
But the space between the place they were and the state they're in now is too great
Feigning a joyful smile to avoid a painful trial
From her friends who say he gypped her and she's swimmin in denial
But that's a vile vial of bile to swallow
Cause her love for him is vital for her survival to follow
Now she's winded and her lungs are so confused
The air he once provided has been suddenly removed
He couldn't handle the heat
But she wanted a fire
All he gave was icy feet and unfulfilled desires
Pre-chorus:
“Holding my breath, won't lose you again
Something's made your eyes go cold”
Hook:
“Come on, come on, don't leave me like this
I thought I had you figured out
Something's gone terribly wrong
You're all, I, wanted
Come on, come on, don't leave me like this
I thought I had you figured out
Can't breathe whenever you're gone
Can't turn, back, now I'm haunted
Come on, come on, don't leave me like this
I thought I had you figured out
Something's gone terribly wrong
You're all, I, wanted
Come on, come on, don't leave me like this
I thought I had you figured out
Can't breathe whenever you're gone
Can't turn, back, now I'm haunted”
