Degh - Things Fall Apart lyrics

[Intro: Sampha] Well, um. I guess I'll talk to you later then? Alright. See you, bye [Verse 1: Degh] And I can't get close Cos when I do get close My mind overdose on words unspoke My feelings froze in this winter's snow While you melt and search out down below Trapped in chicago w/o a winter coat Wind knockin' waves up on my boat Water level rising, three feet high and I know I ain't got the antidote So I take 'em on. Paddle harder "This bow is strong." Voice of my father This feels wrong--I'm not a martyr Inner-child sacrificed for the slaughter But I can't give up, f** that bruh Point towards the stars & buckle up Yeah I can't give up, f** that bruh [Chorus: Sampha] See I can't get close, I can't get I can't get close See I can't get close, I can't get I can't get close to you [Verse 2: Degh] And I can't get close Cos when I did get close Spend an hour an*lyzing a timeline post Other dudes hovering in the air like ghosts Pretend to be unaware I suppose Or takes cues like an actor is 'sposed? Or hold a position like a model is posed? I don't do well when I'm idle & posed I don't do well when I'm tired & old Cos I've seen this before The dude like me dies first Before I believe I read lies first Before I go grieve I survive first Before we perceive we are blind first Before we roll up we must grind first It's my season like Weezy with "Y" first Just do it kid no need to try first Just do it kid no need to try first [Outro: Sampha] Oh, I'll never, no I never, will lose your love See you never, ever really knew all it Oh, oh, you take me Oh, love you've taken me over Oh, love you taken me over Oh, love you've taken me Oh love you've taken me apart
