“Unless” is a dark storyline about two clinically depressed people who continually talk each other off the ledge…
If you listen to the melody and aren’t focused on the lyrics, it has a lighter sound. I tried to capture a bittersweet harmony between lyrics and sonics in the form of a classic R&B...
She caught a Lyft and said take me where this is
I said darling, your pin is on top of a bridge
She said I don't give a damn
Take me where I’ll land
Never fly again, no
I got no mom to cry
No brother left behind
I think it's just my time
Unless
Unless you got the words I need, the reason to breathe
Unless
Unless you don't think I got problems behind both my eyes, they don’t lie
But darling, neither do I
I think I've known you all my life
When our vanity collides, insanity decides
To end it all, but try to rеmember
Remеmber what I said
I won't panic, I won't kid
If you're losing oxygen, remove the toxic-ness, you kiss under the bridge
No
I know it's hard, I won't sugarcoat
Don't you try to stop drop and roll
There’s no fire on this ride we’ll float
And reminisce about the time we spoke
Through experience so mutual ay, let it go
I think I'll end up all alone oh
Unless
Unless you got the words I need, the reason to breathe
Unless
Unless you don’t think I got problems behind both my eyes, they don't lie
She said I think you've saved me, but Johnny how bout you?
You think you're put together, no
I can see behind your ruse
Smiles hide the screams
That I hear in your sleep
You wakeup when I weep, then ask if I had a nightmare
I just nod and shake my head
Then we laugh and break the bed
You give to everyone you’ve met, but can't accept the man I'd wed
Oh If his eyes just cleared the red
No more screams we softly slept
It's not me I know you said
It's not me I know you said
Unless, unless
Unless
Unless you got the words I need, the reason to breathe
Unless
Unless you don't think I got problems behind both my eyes, they don't lie
Standing on the balcony like count to three and jump
I promise I'll come to
She says you want to more than I do
Wait wait, no
Remember all the time we spent inside that Lyft
I said the only words I knew
Girl, I think I love you
Unless
Unless you got the words I need, the reason to breathe
Unless
Unless you don't think I got problems behind both my eyes, they don't lie
Unless
Unless you don't think I got problems behind both my eyes
They don't lie
Unless?
