Lyrics
Verse 1: 

I love you forever and ever.
Oh is that shameless? 

Like my papaya salad
oh, it’s not the same as 
yours.

Chorus:

You don’t make it no more
you’re on the floor. 

Eyes glued to the screen
oh where have you been? 

Your hope brought you here, 
but your hope turned to fear, 

now you’re not here…
  
Verse 2: 

“I love you forever and ever”.
That's what you want to hear? 

Hope that you’ve not forgotten 
how i've shown it all these years.

But your fingerprints are clear 
been fermenting through
our tears 

and your hope 
it lives on through us my dear.

And even though you’re not here
we hope you feel
 relief. 

Chorus: 

Oh my papaya salad,
it’s not the same as yours.

You don’t make it no more
you’re on the floor. 

Eyes glued to the screen
oh where have you been? 

Outro: 
Ah Ah Ah

Verse 1:

I’ve always wanted.
I’ve always needed. 

Wanting’s not so bad, 
oh no not when it’s 
you. 

But it’s new to me 
to try be a part of 
something new. 

It intimidates me. 
It even scares me. 
Cuz you’re the key to my truth. 

Chorus:

The bleeding I do, 
is breathing to you.  

Your haphazard wonder. 
I never knew 
or understood
cuz all I had are 
regulations.

Oh it’s not so bad (so bad so bad)
so bad 
so bad 
It’s not so bad to be wanting, 

to be wanting you.
Verse 2: 
 
I’ve always needed.
I’ve always wanted. 

But I couldn’t let me
get off that easily (no). 
The way you move 
so freely, 

the envy
(oh the envy)

Chorus: 

The bleeding I do, 
Is breathing to you 

Your haphazard wonder 
I never knew 
or understood
because all I had are 
hesitations. 
You still saw through them.

Oh it’s not so,
oh it’s not so bad 
it’s not so bad, so bad, so bad
wanting you.
