Come Undone
Grayscale feat. Patty Walters Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Now I'm gone, gone and out of your life
Like a blood moon burning underneath the sun
Now I'm gone, out of sight and out of your mind
Like a wayward soul possessed speaking in tongues
You love to watch me come undone

Stood face to face with your ghost tonight
And I tried to apologize
As you crept in my mind
I crashed my car on black ice tonight
Barely made it out alive
I think you smashed my headlights
Don't know why your winds keep blowing in my mind

Now I'm gone, gone and out of your life
Like a blood moon burning underneath the sun
Now I'm gone, out of sight and out of your mind
Like a wayward soul possessed speaking in tongues
You love to watch me come undone

You disappeared on me for quite some time
Violent and restless nights
I live my life at high tide
Hope I never have to see your face again
Should've never let you in in the first place, but I'll mend
Don't know why your winds keep blowing in my mind

Now I'm gone, gone and out of your life
Like a blood moon burning underneath the sun
Now I'm gone, out of sight and out of your mind
Like a wayward soul possessed speaking in tongues
You love to watch me come undone

I miss the way it was when you would smile big
I never listened, forever living at a distance
I wish I could cut myself out of my own skin
I never listened, forever living at a distance
And now I'm gone, gone and out of your life
Heartstrings tied in knots pinched my veins shut

Now I'm gone, gone and out of your life
Like a blood moon burning underneath the sun
Now I'm gone, out of sight and out of your mind
Like a wayward soul possessed speaking in tongues
You love to watch me come undone

Woah




You love to watch me come undone
Woah
