Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I hate to hear you disown me
Thought I was one to make you feel whole again
Rather not go and revisit the old me
Wish that I could still see us growing old again
Lately that vision been erased, should've wrote it in pen
I can't hold it against you, I been holding it in
Can we hold intermissions? Get back to it, I miss it
When you needed me most
[Chorus]
I've been staring at the same four walls
Tryna capture what has now been lost
We've been fighting just to feel alive
I've been staying just to have you close
[Verse 2]
Need you still like it's the day I met you
Every day is like the first time
Wanna get to know you, telling war stories 'bout our worst times
And worst times only grown
Broken oaths leave me so sick
Stayed afloat on my boat
No fish on the pole
But you my dry land
Both feet under me where they supposed
I can't lie, I feel exposed
You keep me grounded like a flagpole
Like a tadpole or a caterpillar to the bull frog or the butterfly
You're the livest
[Chorus]
I've been staring at the same four walls
Tryna capture what has now been lost
We've been fighting just to feel alive
I've been staying just to have you close
I've been staring at the same four walls
Tryna capture what has now been lost
We've been fighting just to feel alive
I've been staying just to have you close
[Instrumental]
Do some damage
(You can do it the whole album)
Telling war stories 'bout the worst times
