lyrics

You won’t shut up and I’m holding back
All the empty space is filled with your stories of a time you’ll soon forget

Do I still remind you of yourself
Wide eyed and hopeful through this living hell
You put me through for loving you

And you asked me why
I would always lie

I wanted you to know my name
If only I could help you to forget it
The way it feels to cry at nineteen
Hurts a lot more when you understand it
Now I bite my tongue and hold my breath and for what? I don’t know I guess
Maybe I failed at something you did right

I don’t miss you, I just want it back
All the things I could’ve had but didn’t get
you pushed me down under your thumb

And you wonder why
I would always lie

I wanted you to know my name
If only I could help you to forget it
The way it feels to cry at nineteen
Hurts a lot more when you understand it
Now I bite my tongue and hold my breath and for what? I don’t know I guess
Maybe I failed at something you did right

I wanted you to know (x4)

I wanted you to know my name
If only I could help you to forget it
The way it feels to cry at nineteen
Hurts a lot more when you understand it
I bite my tongue and hold my breath and for what? I don’t know I guess
Maybe I failed at something you did right

This is wonderful. Has an Electric Youth dreamy vibe going, and the added guitar to the soundscape really works well. Love the hazy dubbed voicings too. I fell over this by coincidence on Spotify - thanks for that, algorithm. pharmand
