lyrics

You watch the wind blow
I watch my city falling down
You arrest me, contest me
Let me go
Lord, I’m trying my best
To not let this ruin my spirit
But the clock keeps ticking on
No time in between to get anything done

And I built cathedrals to
Keep you out of my world
But it made no difference
Cuz you keep crawling back in

And I said it was love
But it was just infatuation at first sight
And I know you can’t be
What I always wanted you to be

And who do you think that you are?
You think you got me wrapped around
Your sweet little finger
How dare you act like you got my back when

You’re still tryna take my dress off, baby
You’re still trying to make me a fool
You’re making me less of a person, baby
And that’s just too cruel

Baby, I’m intoxicated
Feeling like never before
You walk away away, walk towards me
And I’m aware of it all
So distracted whenever you’re beside me
Everyday I look for reasons to say your name
When you talk it’s all talk
You love the effects of your words
There’s something in the way we converse
And what I see as something good
You run away from

You drag me around, again and again
You like the way you use me
But I know my bottom lip is
Your favorite pastime

I’m done being your fool
I’ve done my time
Baby, don’t you think I wasted enough nights

You watch the wind blow
I build my city back one brick at a time
You arrest me, hypnotize me
Let me go
