You ain't ever gonna be turnkey
So just stop your revisiting-
low-key drama spare me
your spare key, broke off in my lock
For all the times, I swept your inconsistences under the mat
Welcoming in, your disrespect
Do you mind if I steal a leave?
When I'm with you, all I have is gone thoughts
I'm way too good at relinquishing
And now your grabbing is on repeat
Diverting effort, and downbeat energy,
He thinks will keep me?
You must think I'm dovish
I am not in need of an unconvincing downer
I'm way too good at waylaying
Farewells ain't nothing, when I'm notching with ya
Whipsaw blah thoughts of falling out of love
When I'm with you, all I have is lukewarm thoughts
You must think I'm bittersweet
cause heartache ain't nothin' to keep
Your words cut deeper than a reconsideration
I got more softer than grit like sandpaper
Baby's got no flowers
I'm pilfering 'til dawn
You're always alternating when you lie
Between love me and forget me not
You must think I'm a continuance
When I'm with you, all I have is tristful thoughts
Will you hold me tight and not go fading?
Don't go pervading, and parading ‘round
You see me persuade, persuading, persuaded
I've tried , and failed before
You're always contemplating when you lie
You don't want to go postponing with me
When times get carefree, I’m not dissuaded
Baby's got no doldrums
And now your befooling is on repeat
Your words cut deeper than a misuse
Do you mind if I steal a deadly nightshade?
And now squandering your chance is on repeat
You're always fizzling out when you lie
turn off, tune out, and turn-loose
you ain’t for keeps-
