This is a song about break up. It’s sad, and discusses some of the bitter feelings towards your ex significant other. The producers use a subtle but ‘Chilled Out’ beat behind the lyrics to bring about an almost COOL vibe, however don’t be fooled, a lot of blame and low key hatred lies within.
[Verse 1]
I'm kicking down your love
Faded like a light gone old
Hanging there in empty space
Out there in the hazy fog
I'm not saying it's your fault
But you hid it under blankets
Oh baby let me go
Release me from your handle. I never wanna know
[Chorus]
You used to shine so bright, but you
Soured at the taste of a bitter leaf
Took it all out on me but I see
Through you and you won't be causing me no grief, anymore
You used to shine so bright, but you
Soured at the taste of a bitter leaf
Took it all out on me but I see
Through you and you won't be causing me no grief, anymore
[Verse 2]
Hanging loose from the wall
Strips and flakes of paint
I'm tearing down your love
And all the last remains
I can feel the roof crash down
But maybe I'm dreaming
Lying on a redwood floor
Eyes fixed on the ceiling. I never leave it on
[Chorus]
You used to shine so bright, but you
Soured at the taste of a bitter leaf
Took it all out on me but I see
Through you and you won't be causing me no grief, anymore
You used to shine so bright, but you
Soured at the taste of a bitter leaf
Took it all out on me but I see
Through you and you won't be causing me no grief, anymore
[Outro]
You used to shine so bright, but you
Soured at the taste of a bitter leaf
Took it all out on me but I see
Through you and you won't be causing me no grief
You used to shine so bright, but you
Soured at the taste of a bitter leaf
Took it all out on me but I see
Through you and you won't be causing me no grief, anymore
You used to shine so bright, but you
Soured at the taste of a bitter leaf
Took it all out on me but I see
Through you and you won't be causing me no grief, anymore
You used to shine so bright, but you
Soured at the taste of a bitter leaf
Took it all out on me but I see
Through you and you won't be causing me no grief, anymore
