Lyrics
Stay
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.
Stall, drawn out in stains
Whisper your truth
Then I had the lidocaine watered down so you could feel it all
Bending your lie
Tried to have too much at once
And that's the way everything stayed
And I heard you claim to be something like an expert in pain
So let's make believe
Sharp, don't take too long
Cleaning your wounds
She kept a ledger in the waterfall to wash it all away
Bending your lie
Storming disarray
Choking on ativan
Truly destined to be
Blood shot, we suffocate (in your arms)
Tried to make everything stay, love
But I can't convince you to change
And I heard you claim to be something like an expert in pain
So let's make believe
