Stained

(album: Handmade Songs By Tori Kelly - 2012)

Whatever you're searching for
You won't find it here
But I'll admit something keeps pulling me back into your atmosphere
I'm really good at mistakes
All the marks I left on the page
They seem to never wanna disappear

Why do you still come around?
When all I do is push, push, push you away
I really really wanna take a chance on you but I
I hesitate

I'm afraid to start
Don't wanna break your heart
Just finish picking up the pieces from this mess
I never meant to hurt nobody
But now I tend to move slowly
Cause if I ever slip from your fingertips
My name would be stained on your lips

Oh ooh whoa, oh ooh whoa
Oh ooh whoa, oh ooh whoa

It feels like everybody's watching
To see what my next move is
Do I proceed with caution or do I just dive in?
But I'm fine with taking it slow
Enjoy life on my own
But I can be confusing sometimes, I know

I'm surprised you're still around
Baby all I do is push, push, push you away
I really really wanna take a chance on you but I
I need to make sure this isn't just a phase

I'm afraid to start
Don't wanna break your heart
Just finish picking up the pieces from this mess
I never meant to hurt nobody
But now I tend to move slowly
Cause if I ever slip from your finger tips
My name would be stained

I'm afraid to start
Don't wanna break your heart
Just finish picking up the pieces from this mess
I never meant to hurt nobody
But now I tend to move slowly
Cause if I ever slip from your finger tips
My name would be stained on your lips

Oh ooh whoa, oh ooh whoa
Oh ooh whoa, oh ooh whoa
Oh ooh whoa, oh ooh whoa
Oh ooh whoa, oh ooh whoa

Nothing wrong with taking my time with love
I don't wanna be the bad guy again
I don't wanna be the bad guy again
Still working out the kinks in my tainted love
Colors bleed out from my heart to his
Different shades that I can't predict
Nothing wrong with taking my time with love (love)
