Okay so i js thought I'd let you know the lyrics ahead of time so here they are: I paint a smile for the world to see But inside it’s gettin’ hard to breathe Every thought’s a battlefield And nothing in me ever heals You see the light, but I see the storm I’ve been weathered, bruised, and torn You deserve a heart that’s whole Not one that’s always closing doors [Chorus] So darlin’ please don’t wait for me Love like this can’t set you free I’m a ghost behind these eyes A prisoner of my own disguise You want someone who's really there Not someone too hurt inside to care Don't fall for someone you can't save I'm not a love, I'm just a wave Crashing hard-- so run from me [Verse 2] I wish I knew how to let you in But I don’t know where Id even begin My silence isn’t mystery It’s just a cage that’s holdin’ me You try to reach me through the cracks But I keep slippin’ further back You shine like day, I fade like night And I don’t want to dim your light [Chorus] So darlin’ please don’t wait for me Love like this can’t set you free I’m a ghost behind these eyes A prisoner of my own disguise You want someone who's really there Not someone too hurt inside to care Don't fall for someone you can't save My souls a storm while yours is brave You need the calm, so run from me [Bridge] (maybe add a key change interlude between) Maybe in another life Where I’m not fightin’ just to survive I’d give you all the parts I hide But now I’m barely holdin’ tight [Final Chorus] So darlin’, please don’t wait for me I’m not who I pretend to be There’s beauty in the way you care But I’m too lost to meet you there You want someone who’s wild and free But I’m locked up so silently You want someone who can lead Not someone who can't even bleed Cause all my blood is bled How could I reach your heart When I can't make it outta my own bed Don't fall for someone you can't save My heart is buried in a grave Ill drown your light so run from me
Update: I have added the rough draft cover of the song, pls excuse the quality i recorded it on a whim in my bed
