Autumn - NIKI

作词：Nicole Zefanya

作曲：Nicole Zefanya

I carved my name into your ribcage

We talked of lands away from this cage

You said don t fret love someday I ll be my own man I'll be free

Oh but darling did you mean

Darling did you mean free from me

You promised home

The kind I'd never known oh

But here we are skin and flesh and beating hearts

and I'm wondering what the hell I'm doing wrong

You said Let's make ourselves our very own brigade this love our shield our blade

Oh but darling do you see the cuts from which I bleed

It s me you ve slain

I didn t obliterate these walls for you to come and raid my home

And here you are right next to me

Ironically I've never felt more alone

I fell for you faster than I fell apart

And I guess I'm the one to blame for letting myself fall too hard

I ripped my heart out and put it in your hands in hopes that we d put up a fight

How paradoxical since now all I can think about is when will we stop trying

Ooh

Oooh how do we stay afloat

When do I let go

All you do is blindside me it's hard to be brave

But when the night cuts into the day it s your love I crave

I must ve thanked my lucky stars too much

they left me sitting in too much dust

You know all my dreams

You were one so it seemed

And I love you but with you

It's heartache I breathe

You gave it your all just with everything you took from me

Oh my love

Is this the end for us

Maybe we ve had enough
