What Was Mine

(album: Cypress - 2022)

Lay your coat on the dirty ground
You said you'd do it for me
The air was misty, thick, and violent
You smelled like you knew you could seduce me

Placed your hands on my guitar
And played my favorite things
I wish I had known you would be gentle
Somehow the sweet ones always hurt me

My babe, my babe, my baby
My babe, my babe, my baby is
My babe, my babe, my baby isn't mine

(Oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no)

Laid myself all stretched out
A platter adorned for you
I guess you aren't hungry right now
For a bite of a vow or a taste of the truth

The masquerade is over
Save me the come down
Save me the drought
What do I do with the idea of you now?

My babe, my babe, my baby
My babe, my babe, my baby is
My babe, my babe, my baby isn't mine

(Oh no, oh no)

Oh no, oh no, you put me in a window
Withhold myself from overflow
Undergo the changes in a vertigo
When you go you take the best of me though
A black hole
Do you take me on the metro to see a show?
Play me up on the radio?
Maybe so
You take the best of all I know, all I grow
Do you take me?
You take me

Do you take me?
You take (what was mine)
Do you take me?
You take (what was mine)
Do you take me?
You take (what was mine)
