Indie Pop - Finish TIcket

written & produced by me

LYRICS:

VERSE 1:
I can't escape, and
I'm tucked on a dead bed
That's full of thoughts of you, but I
I feel at unease, cause i cannot predict
How long you'll stay in my life
I'm killing the happy story i write down,
in a minute you'll be gone for life
It's killing me softly, causing that my blood
Steams, why you're safe till my head tells me you're not?
PRE-CHORUS 1:
I have to trust you after all
Cause i can't blame you for what you're not
Would you catch me everytime i fall?
It's not Enough

CHORUS:
Said it was okay, wasn't what I meant and
It's clear in my face everytime, you still
Try to reach my hand, i just can't let you in
Told myself i can't go back ever again
POST CHORUS 1:
I can't escape from the place that I'm in
And going nowhere won't erase what i did
I'm stagnant, and can't make up for it
I'm everything i hate in life?

VERSE 2:
Every now and then
I crave to stay
but when I'm homebound is it that I'm lost 
I don't know if it's my instinct or my insecure thinking
That pushes me from you and this life
PRE-CHORUS 2:
Been this way, i guess
Can't blame you for what I've been
I'm looking down for something 
Not knowing what I crave
Comfortably numb while i wait, to see the light of day
I'm focused now in every chore
So i can shut down every thought

CHORUS 2:
It's dragging me all over the floor
a bit too far
A bit too much
Said it was okay, wasn't what I meant
And now i can't go back ever again

POST-CHORUS/BRIDGE:
I can't escape from the place that I'm in
And going nowhere won't erase all the shame
Had a lot to say, chose to stay silent
When i was pleased it was a lie
Right round the bend
Our ride ends within
And I stood in my place with your mixed messages, 
I made up in my brain all the ways that i hope could explain
Why is it that again
I'm at fault, about trust...
