She Reigns

(album: Compliments Please - 2019)

And the morning won't be painful for much longer
And the doom that I inflict, it will subside
And I'm only out for something when I'm weary
The need to prove to me that I'm alive

If there's anything that pushes forth a feeling
It's the lapping of our bodies by the tide
But I've been having trouble with my memory
And this deep unending sadness that I've tried

To work on
To push through
It's always been you
But I really cut the cord this time

Baby I'm not easy to be with like this, it's okay to quit
But no-one ever tried like you

I'm only making it simple
Because the working out the problems in your mind
You'll realise redundant in the moment
I leave you to be you alone tonight

But if you could ever be open to the idea
Of letting me be back inside your life
I maybe wouldn't be different or better
But my promise to you is that I would try

To slow down
Make the waves smooth
It's always been you
But I really cut the cord this time
I'd slow down
And make the waves smooth
It's always been you
But I really cut the cord this time

Baby I'm not easy to be with like this, it's okay to quit
But no-one ever tried like you

I know you've had enough, I won't give you up
I know you've had enough, I won't give you up
I know you've had enough, I won't give you up
I know you've had enough, I won't give you up
I know you've had enough, I won't give you up
I know you've had enough, I won't give you up
I know you've had enough, I won't give you up
I know you've had enough, I won't give you up
