Eggshells

[Verse 1]
Patient, I am patient, I am waiting for you dear
I am counting up the moments spent until I have you here
And I am hoping I am wishing I am praying to my god
That when I finally have you here that it’s still something that I want

[Verse 2]
Cuz I am tired of fighting, of holding what’s inside me
It’s 'alright's and 'I’m so sorry's, yeah, the cycle’s never-ending
And I can’t fight the feeling that we are slowly sinking
That our worlds are growing distant, it’s getting hard for me to live in

[Chorus]
No, I don’t want to hurt you, want to leave you
But I can’t live with this sinking empty feeling
Like we’re working and I can’t take one more second
Of these eggshells that we’re walking, this ain’t living
And it’s nothing I would say, it’s nothing I could change anyway

[Verse 3]
Reckless I am reckless I’m just stupid for you babe
I am lucid when you’re gone and when you’re not it’s all a dream
I get soft and I get easy, I get lost inside your eyes
Yeah, It’s some sick kind of magic, I forgive you every time
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

[Verse 4]
But I am tired of charming, always getting what you want
The crumbs of your heart, they don’t sustain me
It’s just enough to keep me waiting and I can’t fight the feeling
We’re a bomb that’s always ticking
A single nudge could fucking end it, I’m so sick of being cautious

[Chorus]
No, I don’t want to hurt you, want to leave you
But I can’t live with this sinking empty feeling
Like we’re working and I can’t take one more second
Of these eggshells that we’re walking, this ain’t living
But it’s nothing I would say, it’s nothing I could change anyway

[Bridge]
No, it’s nothing I would say, it’s nothing I could change
Oh, you’re gonna watch me walk away
No, you don’t know how to make me stay
It’s nothing I would say, it’s nothing I could change
Oh, you’re gonna watch me walk away
You’re gonna watch me walk away

[Verse 5]
Oh, cuz I am tired of caring 'bout your feelings when you spare none
Don’t want your love if it’s not consistent, never knowing where we’re standing
And I can’t fight the feeling that we are slowly dying
Like those flowers you always bought me, all those insincere apologies

[Chorus]
No, I don’t want to hurt you, want to leave you
But I can’t live with this sinking empty feeling
Like we’re working and I can’t take one more second
Of these eggshells that we’re walking, this ain’t living
But it’s nothing I would say, it’s nothing I could change
