Crawl
Emma Lahana Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
From where you hide, my dear
Crawl to me
If I made your mistake
Could I stand? Would I break?
Crawl to me
All your smoke and your mirrors obscured reality
Baby, you beg for me
You'll never get to me
Giving your debt to me
Did you think you could last again
When you are last again
That isn't happenin'
Did you think to forgive again
Think we could live again
You weren't listenin' at all
Now crawl to me
Then the light from your shame
Called my bluff, called my name
Crawl to me
Do you dare still deny
What I've seen with my eyes
Crawl to me
And you're crossing a bridge as it burns
Til' finally I'm concerned, now crawl
Baby, you beg for me
You'll never get to me
Giving your debt to me
Did you think you could last again
When you are last again
That isn't happenin'
Did you think to forgive again
Think we could live again
You weren't listenin' at all
Now crawl to me
I bet, I bet you will return
One step, one step left, you will learn
You will learn
Baby, you beg for me
You'll never get to me
Giving your debt to me
Did you think you could last again
When you are last again
That isn't happenin'
Did you think to forgive again
Think we could live again
You weren't listenin' at all
Now crawl to me
Baby, you beg for me
You'll never get to me
Giving your debt to me
Did you think you could last again
When you are last again
That isn't happenin'
Did you think to forgive again
Think we could live again
You weren't listenin' at all
Now crawl to me
