Lungs Lyrics
Eve Christina
1
Take off your shoes, it’s getting late
And you’re the reason I can’t sleep
Willing to give more than I take
On just a secret that you keep
I’m getting weaker now, you figured out
You got a hold on me
2
I’d risk my life, drive late at night
If it meant sleeping skin-on-skin
You’d turn away, back to my face
But I’d be grateful that I’m in
The bed of somebody
Who tolerates my company
There must be something wrong with me
To settle so uncomfortably
Take my lungs, tie them up
That still wouldn’t hurt as much
As when he lies thеre, hand in my hair
And says “of course it isn’t love”
Laughs thеn goes “I thought you’d know”
Well that’s a pretty fucked up joke
Anyone would wonder home
But that would mean being alone
I’d rather lie there, I’d rather lie there
And laugh until I cry there
3
Video games I never played
That you’ve been practicing for years
Rewatch the films you know I hate
I’m certain I could disappear
You wouldn’t feel a thing, it’s strange to think
You asked me to be here
4
I’d rearrange entire days
Just on the off-chance that you’re free
To lead me on in other ways
I shouldn’t make it so easy
We used to talk for weeks
But talking lost its novelty
The devil lies on top of me
I’d rather that than nobody
Take my lungs, tie them up
That still wouldn’t hurt as much
As when he lies there, hand in my hair
And says “don’t go falling in love”
Force a smile, “of course I won’t”
Well that’s a pretty fucked up joke
Anyone would wonder home
But that would mean being alone
I’d rather lie there, I’d rather lie there
And laugh until I cry there
Tired eyes, I see where this is going
It’s too late to drive, my weakness is showing
Don’t act so surprised, just one more night
Honestly the hardest part of all of this is
Watching me becoming all the things I said
I’d never be, oh honestly
