[Verse 1]
I took so many half truths and stretched them the whole way
Wonder what you'd say
I get defensive when it comes to you
Cos we went from Luke Cage and Jess Jones
To losing weight and fake groans
You moved away I stayed home
You played the joker I made jokes
Subtle distinction
Subtle distinction
But in a storm I need more than a raincoat
Why we talking bout boys that I ain't know?
Names is just names to me
Quit calling then acting like you ashamed of me
It's fine, I forgive you
We all fucked someone over just show your other face to me
[Chorus]
Be honest with me babe
Be honest with yourself
I might not love you but I know you well
Be honest with me babe
Oh I can help
You know I ain't the type to kiss and tell
Be honest with me babe
Be honest with yourself
I might not love you but I know you well
Be honest with me babe
Oh I can help
Plenty pennies for your thoughts in this wishing well
(Plenty pennies for your thoughts in this wishing well)
(Plenty pennies for your thoughts in this wishing well)
[Verse 2]
When do my sunglasses get rose tints?
Left 6 months ago we ain't spoke since
You message, I'm ghosting
You high and you smoking
I try let it go but I am frozen
Connections to women I've dated
All faded
Treating one night stands like therapists
I just say shit
In bed with Courtney talking bout exes
Just face it
I place more trust in a strangers than friends
Ain't that amazing
Ain't that amazing
My heart bleeds for the women I've dated
Cos they tried their best to save me
And in the dark I hear em saying
I hear them saying
I hear them saying
[Chorus]
Be honest with me babe
Be honest with yourself
I might not love you but I know you well
Be honest with me babe
Oh I can help
You know I ain't the type to kiss and tell
Be honest with me babe
Be honest with yourself
I might not love you but I know you well
Be honest with me babe
Oh I can help
Plenty pennies for your thoughts in this wishing well
(Plenty pennies for your thoughts in this wishing well)
(Plenty pennies for your thoughts in this wishing well)
(Plenty pennies for your thoughts in this wishing well)
(Plenty pennies for your thoughts in this wishing well)
[Verse 1]
I'm out my mind
I'm out my mind
Crow follow
Till I'm out of sight
They think I'm blind
They think I'm blind
They don't know
That these hills have eyes
[Bridge]
I was watching from a distance yeah
Good advice I never listen
I was just trying to fix it yeah
Please don't split the difference
[Chorus]
Long walks turn to exits
And soulmates turn to exes
Long walks turn to exits
And soulmates turn to exes
[Verse 2]
I'm sick and tired
I'm sick and tired
I ain't chasing what's already mine
They think I'm fine
They think I'm fine
They don't know what I've seen with these eyes
[Bridge]
I was watching from a distance yeah
Good advice I never listen
I was just trying to fix it yeah
Please don't split the difference
[Chorus]
Long walks turn to exits
And soulmates turn to exes
Long walks turn to exits
And soulmates turn to exes
[Verse 3]
I gave you the cold shoulder a few times, I'm sure
I had a dream where you ain't laugh at my jokes no more
I miss the conversation and I know I'm bored
Took a few long walks now I'm lost and off course
And of course you always want more
I gave this say it's all yours
I question what I do this all for
When we only hug on the concourse
And I found out when you lost it
You won't catch me when I'm falling
Your tone of voice is appalling
Look in my eyes when you talking yah yah
Look in my eyes when you talking
Your mum taught you better I saw it
I ain't the only one out here touring yah yah
It's been so long it's been so long
I know all good things end but where did, where did we go wrong?
[Verse 1]
Temperature rise as I scream
They all want to get at me
I don't want wake from my dream
Cos I'm only happy asleep
I wash my hands in the sea
Waves twisting and turning through me
Turn me out I'm free
Turn me around I'm me
[Chorus]
Don't tell me you don't hate it
Don't tell me you don't cry
I know you try and hide it
I see it in your eyes
Don't tell me you don't hate it
Don't tell me you don't cry
I know you try and hide it
I see it in your eyes
[Verse 2]
Oh you should wait 'fore you speak
You always hate the silence I need
Don't try wipe blood off the leaves
Just admit you're sick of my scheme
Plan out opinions you freak
Speak from your heart not your sleeve
Turn me out I'm free
Turn me around I'm me
[Chorus]
Don't tell me you don't hate it
Don't tell me you don't cry
I know you try and hide it
I see it in your eyes
Don't tell me you don't hate it
Don't tell me you don't cry
I know you try and hide it
I see it in your eyes
(I see it in your eyes)
(I see it in your eyes)
[Verse 1]
I still see those cats eyes
In my my my mind
Oh I'm ready
Oh I'm ready
Leave a space for me
Lay a place for me
Lay me to rest
Birdsong ain't so tasteful
[Hook]
Primrose hill
I feel it still
The sound blur
Sound blur
Does sound hurt?
The sound hurt
It won't always work
And it won't always hurt
And it won't always work
No it won't always work
[Verse 2]
I taste the berry on my lips
You move like magic
You you hat-trick
I ride slowly
Turn around you know me
Turn around you know me
Turn around you know me
[Hook]
Primrose hill
I feel it still
The sound blur
Sound blur
Does sound hurt?
The sound hurt
It won't always work
And it won't always hurt
And it won't always work
No it won't always work
[Verse 3]
Don't lie to me
I see it in your eyes
I see it in your eyes
Don't cry to me
No no don't cry to me
I see it in your eyes
I see it in your eyes
I see it in your eyes
I see it in your eyes
[Verse 1]
Rest my shot glass on a bible
Never mind I'll find someone like you
My scars got me acting spiteful
You should know I do this despite you
[Bridge]
I burn a bridge
I made a list
I lost it
But you should know
Nobody love you like I did
I was just lonely
Follow the road exhausted
Know I'll die in the fire
[Chorus]
But the flames is calling
And the flames keep calling
I pour one out for memories
Before they all come back to burn me
[Verse 2]
Sorry to everyone that I lied to
If you burnt the bridge you were probably right to
Think I feel life comes in cycles
So even when I lose myself I find you
[Bridge]
I burn a bridge
I made a list
I lost it
But you should know
Nobody love you like I did
I was just lonely
Follow the road exhausted
Know I'll die in the fire
[Chorus]
But the flames is calling
And the flames keep calling
I pour one out for memories
Before they all come back to burn me
[Outro]
