Shade

Give me time Give me space she said I’m fine Just need to clear my head It’s not you But it sort of is What do we do In this predicament Give it time It’ll all make sense Ignored the signs Now the consequence We’ve exhausted ourselves Ran this to the ground The light is paling out Don’t let me down slowly Rip it off like a band-aid Let go of the old me It’s only you that you can save We’re no longer 19 Kids dancing on graves Yet here we are wilting away Cuz we can’t grow in the shade It’s alright It’s a phase she said I’d never lie Unless it called for it What’s the point in entertaining All we had crashing and burning If we both know we been yearning for an exit Rather go our separate ways And keep history safe If that’s what its going to take Don’t let me down slowly Rip it off like a band-aid Let go of the old me It’s only you that you can save We’re no longer 19 Kids dancing on graves Yet here we are wilting away Cuz we can’t grow in the shade Oh we both been treading hard so we don’t go under But this ship has been capsized for far too long We let lightning strike but still have not heard thunder Maybe it’s our time to find where it had gone No I’m sorry I don’t have an explanation I just know that we can’t stand it anymore Oh the gall of us to ignore our expiration We been together in isolation Don’t let me down slowly Rip it off like a band-aid Let go of the old me It’s only you that you can save We’re no longer 19 Kids dancing on graves Yet here we are wilting away Cuz we can’t grow in the shade Don’t let me down Don’t let me down Rip it off like a band-aid Let go let go let go It’s only you that you can save We’re ain’t 19 no more Things ain’t how they were before Yet here we are wilting away We can’t grow in the shade
