Soak It Up

Pillow talk way too risky
I can't trust these moments
You might use them against me
Make me more like the old me, phoney
Dick might make you distant
Slowly I might lose my focus
Keep coming back like Jehovah's Witness baptised in your ocean
Argue first, that don't work
Love is war, in reverse
Pain is pleasure and rehearsed
I was hopeful at my worst
Thirsty thirsty, sans serif or cursive
Way more honest in person
You'll find you in my verses and I find me in your mercy
Dig deep till we both in hearses

(Mmm-hmmm)
I might let you in
(Mmm-hmmm)
Forgive my future sins yeah
(Mmm-hmm)
Soak it up oh soak it up
Burn me like your cigarettes
(Mmm-hmm)
Yeye
I weren't just your new regret

Didn't feel words they hurt me with them
Didn't really think you intend to offend
But I said I'd never let one hurt me again
Swerve the offence, serve the pretence
Can't play ball like Fergie and them
Homegrown truths can't focus on them
Cause I'm lonely again, phoning again
Zoning again (zoning again)
Drunk text, drunk kiss, drunk sex
Lovesick, love lust, love less
Late night, lay cool, latex
Don't know peace but I know patience
Lie to me slowly, mind you control me
I've seen the real you act like you know me
Grind on me closely, don't get too cosy
If you've seen the real me then why don't you show me

Soak it up oh soak it up
This is now what we've become
Pressure makes fun of love
It hurts but that's just what it was

Soak it up oh soak it up
This is now what we've become
Pressure makes fun of love
It hurts but that's just what it was

(Mmm-hmmm)
I might let you in
(Mmm-hmmm)
Forgive my future sins yeah
(Mmm-hmmm)
I might let you in
(Mmm-hmmm)
Forgive my future sins yeah
(Mmm-hmmm)
