Linger Lyrics

You was always trying to make us into something we could never be
So you may as well erase me.
Best kept memories, worthless apologies.
Inseparable,
Now you won't even acknowledge me.
You were all I had, you were all I had.
We would run between the lines
And I would chase you every single time.
Painting by numbers, how hard could it be?
Stole all the water colours from our dreams.

Told me our future was all just make-believe.
Ripped me open for my friends to see,
Destroyed my world and made me bleed.
Lost the most beautiful thing I'd ever seen.
You took my heart and painted it black,
Looking on the bright sideis something I lack.
You were all I had.
I lie in my room pulling out my own hair,
It gives me something to do,
But doesn't get me anywhere.
Not even time can repair the space that you left in my chest,
You linger in the air.
Fuck the facts,
You knew all along we'd never last.
You were all I had, you were all I had.
We would run between the lines
And I would chase you every single time.
Painting by numbers, how hard could it be?
Stole all the water colours from our dreams.
I lie in my room pulling out my own hair,
It gives me something to do,
But doesn't get me anywhere.
Not even time can repair the space that you left in my chest,
You linger in the air.
I used to think you was beautiful,
But now you're just bland and I'm so cynical.
Your colours faded away unlike my feeling for you.
