I said I’d wait
and I stayed
but the teather it took all the weight
And it’s started to fray
Words that were spoken
They lingered like dust
We’re so settled in motion
We came apart
Like how we came together
Just being with you was like falling from heaven
My chest grows tighter
When day turns to night
And I’m sleeping alone
I’m always
Playing your waiting games
You had me and you hurt me and I’m tired of hollow sorries
I was bargaining my heart for you
Like it was all that I was born to do
Understanding devotion
It came to me when I got broken
Cos no one can bottle the ocean
Counting the waves
And the changes
And learning your ways
And how you embrace them
Those were my drowning days
Playing your waiting games
You had me and you hurt me and I’m tired of hollow sorries
I was bargaining my heart for you
Like it was all that I was born to do
Oh the drowning days
Oh the drowning days
Oh the drowning days
Oh the drowning days
Oh the drowning days
Oh the drowning days
Oh the drowning days
Oh the drowning days
Those were my drowning days
Playing your waiting games
I was bargaining my heart for you
Like it was all that I was born to do
