Like Thorns
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 can't keep holding all this pain I have inside,
Your childish insecurities gon make me lose my mind.
I should have caught it when I saw the subtle signs
But I was blinded by the charming ways that you disguise.
And now I can't sleep at night,
Worried that you're going through my phone,
Knowing you gonna find something wrong!
When it's just illusions that you've created
I won't live a lie
Thought I was unlucky on my own,
Now I curse the day you came along,
And I don't wanna fix this so!
You just need to get out
Because I can't do this anymore
The things that you do I can't endure
You used to be like roses
But now you're just like thorns
I don't wanna fight with you no more,
Cause this ain't really what I signed up for,
You used to be like roses, but now you're just like thorns!
I tried to love you, but you make it so damn hard,
Always accusing me and acting up at my job
Why do you think they gonna catch me in the act?
Or could it be maybe it is you that's out here bad
And now I can't sleep at night,
Worried that you're going through my phone,
Knowing you gonna find something wrong!
When it's just illusions you've created
I won't live a life
Thought I was unlucky on my own,
Now I curse the day you came along,
And I don't wanna fix it so!
You need to get out
Because I can't do this anymore
The things that you do I can't endure
You used to be like roses
But now you're just like thorns
I don't wanna fight with you no more,
Cause this ain't really what I signed up for,
You used to be like roses, but now you're just like thorns!
I know you thought that I would never say these words,
But you have pushed me to my limits (pushed me to the limit)
I've got nothing left to give each other (now you just like thorns)
And it's a shame that all this time will go to waste
And now my love (been in vain) has been in vain
Because my heart don't feel
(Heart don't beat the same) the same no more!
You need to get out
Because I can't do this anymore
The things that you do I can't endure
You used to be like roses
But now you're just like thorns
I don't wanna fight with you no more,
Cause this ain't really what I signed up for,
Oh, you used to be like roses, but now you're just like thorns!
