Footsteps
(专辑: While We Wait - 2019)
Patience could've done us well 'Cause I
could tell that all we lacked was presence And I
would've fell, you could've helped But here's to being honest Neither of us knew what we wanted But all we knew is that we cared Still all we painted was a
moment And when I
walked away I
left footsteps in the
mud so you could follow me And when I
walked away I
left footsteps in the
mud so you could follow me You're so bad at holding water, slips right through your fingers We'd both end up drowning, it would hit the
ground And then the
path would wash away, wash away Look And I
really wanna work this out 'cause I'm tired of fighting And I
really hope you still want me the
way I
want you And it really feels like this shit been on autopilot And it's habitual to be the
bitch I
am but not the
chick you want Residual damage left in place of what was beautiful Excuses only work when what we've done is still excusable You let the
truth unfold But still, cheers to being honest Neither of us knew what we wanted But all we knew is that we cared Still all we painted was a
moment And when I
walked away I
left footsteps in the
mud so you could follow me And when I
walked away I
left footsteps in the
mud so you could follow me You're so bad at holding water, slips right through your fingers We'd both end up drowning, it would hit the
ground And then the
path would wash away, wash away You are a
vision of perfection In my eyes, I
was caught up in a
blessing Didn't realize how it wasn't fair to compare All the
things I
know that I've been through As if you didn't have anything that you went through I
treated you like medicine, but I
guess I
wasn't listening And you tried to explain that you had hurt and pain, too But as long as I
felt better, then it was all good But we wasn't good, so convinced that things were understood Meanwhile, I
had baggage to unpack, and I
just had to admit that Still dealing with the
battles, feeling so inadequate And I
know that I
shoulda stayed But at the
time, it felt like I
had to quit And I
know that you probably thinking Just I
ain't thinking 'bout myself But you still playing in my head to this day talking 'bout You could've helped But still, cheers to being honest Neither of us knew what we wanted (No) But all we knew is that we cared (Uh) Still all we painted was a
moment (Ah) And when I
walked away I
left footsteps in the
mud so you could follow me And when I
walked away I
left footsteps in the
mud so you could follow me You're so bad at holding water, slips right through your fingers We'd both end up drowning, it would hit the
ground And then the
path would wash away, wash away (Wash away)
