Deadend
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I love you even though you don’t talk to me any longer
There’s something that I wanna know, did you leave me for good?
I loved you even more and from far away you look stronger
Out of reach your just through the door but it’s steep on the hill
Love, there's a light
And how do you see your life?
When it's not enough in mine
I don’t want another dead end, get the shovel I could dig in
You don't wanna admit it, let me be the one who did it
I don't want another dead end but I want a love to live in
If you don’t wanna admit it, let me be the one who killed it
I love you even though it's like you never even wonder
And when I ask you tell me no, it's too late to let the light in
Love ain’t even though I'm keeping up, I'm keeping up
I can't appease you anymore, I can't afford to see you from below
I could squeeze if you didn't believe that there was no room
Love, there's a light
And how do you see your life?
When it's not enough in mine
I don’t want another dead end, get the shovel I could dig in
You don't wanna admit it, let me be the one who did it
I don't want another dead end but I want a love to live in
If you don’t wanna admit it, let me be the one who killed it
I'm done tryna write about you
But it gives me something to do, I've been diving for the past, oh
I'm tired of writing about you if you leave
I'm done, I'm done, arms are empty if you leave
I'm done, I'm done, I'm done
(Let me be the one who killed it)
I'm done tryna write about you (I don't want another dead end, get the shovel I could dig in)
But it gives me something to do, I've been diving for the past, oh (you don't wanna admit it, let me be the one who did it)
I'm tired of writing about you if you leave (I don’t want another dead end)
I'm done, I'm done (But I want a love to live in) arms are empty if you leave
I'm done, I'm done (If you don’t wanna admit it), I'm done (Let me be the one who killed it)
I don't want another dead end, get the shovel I could dig in
You don't wanna admit it, let me be the one who did it
I don't want another dead end but I want a love to live in
If you don't wanna admit it, let me be the one who killed it
