[Chorus]
I'm honest when words leave my lips
I promise there ain't nothing in that a kiss
And you know, I love you but I'm not a fighter
I promise there's nothing I this
I want you, you're the only one that I breathe with
And you know, I love you but I'm not a fighter
[Chorus]
I'm honest when words leave my lips
I promise there ain't nothing in that a kiss
And you know, I love you but I'm not a fighter
I promise there's nothing I this
I want you, you're the only one that I breathe with
And you know, I love you but I'm not a fighter
[Verse 1]
Have you really woken with last night’s dress on, girl?
Have you really got what it takes to do the right thing, love?
Oh, you think my heart beats in my eyes
I look at you and sigh
I feel sorry for you
I sigh, I feel sorry for you, you, you
[Chorus]
I'm honest when words leave my lips
I promise there ain't nothing in that a kiss
And you know, I love you but I'm not a fighter
I promise there's nothing I this
I want you, you're the only one that I breathe with
And you know, I love you but I'm not a fighter
[Verse 2]
Maybe it's good if it hurts, and the pain will be worth it
Take the beauty of love and choke it in your palms
I know your heart beats in your eyes
One look from you, I'm high
I feel something for you
So high, I feel something for you
I'm high, I feel something for you
So high, I feel something for you, you, you
[Chorus]
I'm honest when words leave my lips
I promise there ain't nothing in that a kiss
And you know, I love you but I'm not a fighter
I promise there's nothing I this
I want you, you're the only one that I breathe with
And you know, I love you but I'm not a fighter
[Chorus]
I’m honest when words leave my lips
(Hang me up with the stars, slow it down)
I promise there’s nothing I miss
(Hang me up with the stars, slow it down)
I’m honest when words leave my lips
I want you, you’re the only one that I breathe with
And you know, I love you but I’m not a fighter

Thematically, it’s a song about loving someone who loves to fight and lives on drama. The struggle between feeling as if you can breathe with this person while also being scared by how much time they spend outside of the comfort zone.
– Airling in a 2017 interview with Music Feeds.
This song started as a bit of a joke, and I sent it around to the Pieater and Big Scary fam after mucking around at home. Turned out it wasn’t such a joke after all. It still has most the original parts I played the day I wrote the song. I looped some beats and played a bass synth and another synth...
