5 ContributorsDon’t let me go Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You put on your clothes and you kiss me
Pour out a miniature whiskey
Look through the glass at the city
When it gets dark it's so pretty
[Pre-Chorus]
We fell in love very quick
Something about us just clicked
Maybe we're sick, sick in our hearts
You touch me and I fall apart
[Chorus]
The building is filling with smoke
Read me that poem you wrote
It gives me hope
And it makes me choke
I've got my head in your palms
I stare at the scars on your arms
Don't let me go
I won't let you go
[Verae 2]
I lay on the bed where you're lying
You're filming yourself and you're crying
Do you ever dream that you're flying
In the wind with the leaves that are dying?
[Pre-Chorus]
We had to grow up so quick
Killing the world in a click
Maybe we're sick, sick in our bones
You smile and look down at your phone
[Chorus]
The city is filling with smoke
You look out the window and joke:
“If I just jumped
Do you think I would float?”
[Bridge]
Can you hear me scream?
I look at the world and I cannot breathe
[Chorus]
The forest is filling with fire
Turn off the TV, I'm tired
I don't want to know
The skies are aglow
They're taking your body away
And hopelessly all I can say
Is don't let me go
I won't let you go
