Another's touch and getting drunk
To staying up and waking up with you
And I was sleeping at the edge
Oh, there's something we don't need
All this delusion in our heads
It's gonna bring us to our knees
[Hook: James Bay]
So come on, let it go
Just let it be
Why don't you be you?
And I'll be me
Everything that's gone
Leave it to the breeze
Why don't you be you?
And I'll be me
[Verse 1 - Witt Lowry]
(Yeah)
See as I lay here and get lost into those eyes
Can't deny my feelings for your being
They run deep inside
And we both know our hunger for some l*** is all that's appetised
No ties, is how it's advertized
I say we love these moments, but that's half a lie
d***, you're trna figure me out
And in your eyes I see the pain and fear
That turns into doubt
Yeah, you find peace inside your mind
As we lay here on this couch
And that's even though you know this moment may not last past now
"it's not fair", you're in my ear
"Mark are you wasting my time?"
Was so hard to define
It's a shame her name will laminate time
Cause what's forever to a fly?
Is forever till we die?
I never let you have your way
You would just stay cause I rhyme
Our connection is empty
And lately I've been searching for real
Do you remember how it feels to live and actually feel?
She broke me down, so now you're left with all my pieces to heal
How can you steal something from someone who has nothing to steal?
That's real
[Hook: James Bay]
So come on, let it go
Just let it be
Why don't you be you?
And I'll be me
Everything that's gone
Leave it to the breeze
Why don't you be you?
And I'll be me
[Verse 2 - Witt Lowry]
See as you lay here, or, as we lay here
You won't bottle your questions
You're asking why you can't stay here
The truth, I'm tryna lose all my feelings before they appear
Wanna be clear, but it's hard with this naked body I lay near
I know
I should'a chose someone that matters
No b******, I'm wishing I'd listened
I coulda saved my heart from the stitches
We'd kiss and I'd listen, you're telling me your favorite position
When really, all I want to hear is that you're loyal and driven
We're living in a world where girls are thinking diamonds are love
We're mining it up to remind us of us
Paying for trust, do you get it?
She told me "Mark, just forget it"
I wanna change this world
And girl i just don't think that you get it
This pressure is heavy
Now ready to just let you forget me
But when this all is said and done
You gon' regret that you met me
I used to wanna find the feeling, now I'm feeling so empty
But honestly
I wanna thank you for the love that you lent me
That's real
[Outro: James Bay]
