Innocent
ELLUR Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sorry, I'm cynical,
Cause this seemed so innocent,
Is it for cinema?
Am I bleeding?

Well, I'm putting it to bed,
But then in the dark I'm left,
What is it on my chest,
That stops me breathing?

Or am I dreaming?
Just tryna find some meaning.

Now I laid down all my cards,
And I gave you all my heart,
And found myself torn apart,
By the feeling,

Slowly, I find myself hating you,
But don't leave cause I don't want you to,
Yeah everything you say,
Just takes my breath away,
Oh, Baby can you stay?
Are we healing?

Or am I dreaming?
Just tryna find some meaning.

Or am I dreaming?
Or am I-

Or am I dreaming?
Or am I-





Or am I dreaming?
Just tryna find some meaning.
