Chasing A Lie

(album: Francis - 2022)

I'm done wasting my time
Trying to take back the time
Two kids in love
Or whatever we thought it was
I'm done wasting my life
Trying make things alright
Burning out our lungs
We had a good run, chasing a lie

Why don't we ditch this party, love?
Do we call this love?
We kiss so much we hardy talk
Why is this distance far as fuck?
Like my car is stuck
Talk on this phone, it's not enough

And I don't wanna cry to sleep
I just dried my sheets from the time you lied to me
I was broke
And every night you're not with me I just die slowly
But it's time I try and breathe on my own

I'm done wasting my time
Trying to take back the time
Two kids in love
Or whatever we thought it was
I'm done wasting my life
Trying make things alright
Burning out our lungs
We had a good run, chasing a lie

I woke up on the floor again
Stupid choice staying up till 4am
Maybe I'm too fragile like some porcelain
Of course I am
You played me accordions
According to the texts you keep ignoring
When I text you every night and every morning
And you leave me on read

And I don't wanna cry to sleep
I just dried my sheets from the time you lied to me
I was broke
And every night you're not with me I just die slowly
But it's time I try and breathe on my own

I'm done wasting my time
Trying to take back the time
Two kids in love
Or whatever we thought it was
I'm done wasting my life
Trying make things alright
Burning out our lungs
We had a good run, chasing a lie
