Ash

[Chorus: Dido]
My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why I
Got out of bed at all
The morning rain clouds up my window
And I can't see at all
And even if I could it'd all be gray
But your picture on my wall
It reminds me that it's not so bad, it's not so bad
My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why I
Got out of bed at all
The morning rain clouds up my window
And I can't see at all
And even if I could it'd all be gray
But your picture on my wall
It reminds me that it's not so bad, it's not so bad

[Verse 1: DNA Tru Lyricist]
It's hard to think back when it all started
You hit me up on POF, like 'I beg your pardon'
But I saw your comment about people who smoke weed
And when I read it, I was like "Oh no, it's me"
And maybe we don't have a chance to get off on any foot
But when it came to back-and-forth rеplies, there was many put
Somеhow, some way, I actually picked you up one day
Sitting beside me in my truck, Chuck Taylors and jewellery
Hanging off your wrist and neck, hair down with a nerdy look
Kinda gave me the impression you'd stare at a wordy book
Then we went to my house, and honestly, it's quite a blur
But not the rest of our relationship 'cause it was quite a stir
So I'll do my best to state it as I remember
I was just a care-free Virgo born in the month of September
Who hooked up with an Aries, born in the month of April
Physically, we went together like pancakes and maple

[Chorus: Dido]
My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why I
Got out of bed at all
The morning rain clouds up my window
And I can't see at all
And even if I could it'd all be gray
But your picture on my wall
It reminds me that it's not so bad, it's not so bad

[Verse 2: DNA Tru Lyricist]
Honestly, in the beginning, I was still living single
You were my main squeeze, but on the side - I'd mingle
To me, I was just playing the field, a little this and that
No label, I was unable to make that transition yet
But I still remember, at your house, on our backs
On your bed, while you had my phone and opening apps
Facebook, Tinder, POF, no give it back
You looked at me like 'Should I have challenged his actions on that?'
'Cause I had hollered at this chick recently
And at the time, I didn't think it was something that you needed to see
But we were leaving to be due to my mentality
But the strength of your curiosity sparked too much doubt in me
So when I was sound-asleep, you decided to go through my phone
And saw this chick that I hooked up with and couldn't leave it alone
The next morning when I woke up, you weren't ready to
Condone my actions, so you asked me about that girl on my phone
And I was stone-faced mad, even though I was in the wrong
And only focused on the fact that you went through my phone
Realistically, I thought it was the end of the road
Said "Well, that shit is over" got back in my car and went home
Little did I know the state my mind was in
'Cause the next day at work, my phone came chiming in
And it was you, I hung up, you decided to come up
To my job, and walked in all dressed up and done up
Like, what?

[Chorus: Dido]
My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why I
Got out of bed at all
The morning rain clouds up my window
And I can't see at all
And even if I could it'd all be gray
But your picture on my wall
It reminds me that it's not so bad, it's not so bad

[Verse 3: DNA Tru Lyricist]
Looking like a secretary in your black and gray outfit
Black hair pulled back with your glasses on made my mouth drip
We worked it out quick, and our relationship continued
Every time we hung out, great sex was on the menu
Standing at my kitchen counter while you made nachos
Me behind you with my hands in your pants was so hot, though
Next thing you know, we're on the floor and banging out
Hearts racing, panting loud, a thousand percent and you can't doubt
We had the best sex, the others can't test
We couldn't get enough, it was never too much to ingest
Then shortly down the road, things began to change
I remember the first situation that's plain as day
But it was night time, and you came to my house to stay
And you said "I'm gonna take a bath right quick", and I said "Okay"
But next thing you know, it was two hours later
And you were still in the bathroom, like, dude I'm out of patience
And I kept asking "Baby, when you getting out?"
Then my patience fizzled out, and it turned into a shout
I had a pair of dice in my hand, and I threw 'em at the wall
Back then, you showed little concern and came out into the hall
Then, I'm pretty sure we fucked and we both went to sleep
But that was just the beginning of when the avalanche began to creep
Because, from then on, it was a landslide
And drugs made you disrespect my time so many damn times

[Chorus: Dido]
My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why I
Got out of bed at all
The morning rain clouds up my window
And I can't see at all
And even if I could it'd all be gray
But your picture on my wall
It reminds me that it's not so bad, it's not so bad

[Verse 4: DNA Tru Lyricist]
Like, man, there's still so much more to talk about
How do I summarize it? How do I get it out?
I'd have to extend this beat 20 to 30 minutes
There's so many incidents as I could cover and never finish
But in a nutshell, I began to show you love
With cards, flowers, surprises, and songs, all of the above
Little did I know that's when my alpha got scrubbed
'Cause when you act like you give up, that's when these women wanna hug
Then you mixing weed, Xanax, and depression pills
And all the love you give to them, for them's impossible to feel
They think live a double life, and not reveal
The side they try to hide from society, but I can still
See everything clear, why? 'Cause I know you best
I see your physical changes when you try to contest
And give excuses and reasons you read upon and think
That you can give to the world and they'll believe you, it's quick as a blink
And I went through the most pain 'cause I saw the best in you
Gave up on life and went back to dipping for a year or two
But I finally put it down, my mind is finally clear
And I understand if you're not here, you're just not here
And there ain't a single thing that I could ever do or say
But change what it is to talk to you so you are even, change your ways
I guess it wasn't just as much as you as it was to me
The hardest lesson in life you can learn, you talk to me

[Chorus: Dido]
My tea's gone cold, I'm wondering why I
Got out of bed at all
The morning rain clouds up my window
And I can't see at all
And even if I could it'd all be gray
But your picture on my wall
It reminds me that it's not so bad, it's not so bad

[Verse 5: DNA Tru Lyricist]
P.S, uh, so now I'm writing you to tell you
Despite all our past, I still wanna wish you well, you
Never really know who you're gonna fall for
And if there's one thing that I could tell y'all that y'all can't ignore
How much you love somebody, it doesn't matter
'Cause they don't have to feel the same way about you the day after
And after you go through it, it might change your soul
And other people now may claim that you're distant and cold
But the truth is, you know how you felt
And you had to play the game with the shitty hand that life dealt
And you may feel you'll never be yourself again
But you see, the truth is you still are yourself, my friend
So am I writing this to you, myself, or to my fans?
I think I'm writing it to the light of true, yeah, I am
It's just the DNA strand from the inner part of my soul
And I thrive from aggression but I still got a heart of gold
And I'm still gonna be cold when it comes to this lyricism
Give you nothing but the truth and no more, dear, I'm missing
You, 'cause you know damn well how I felt
But you still decided to end our tale, shit's crazy as hell
And change the future of our life like hell
Will I ever feel this way about someone again? Hell, maybe I will
But as for now, I'm still riding solo
So I'll end this shit with: Farewell, sincerely, don't act like you don't know
