Crisis
Javelynn Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Call me when you're gone
Let me know it's safer now
Plead that I moved on
Shatter all our vows
You tried to hold me down
With methods of uncertainty
Like I was you clown
Bereft of all my dignity

Now
I'm turning of the claxons
Now I'm putting an end to this crisis
now
and all half cocked emotions
That I once thought to be
Priceless

Without you in my head
I fell the pressure fade away




I have no tears to shead
No sympathies to offer babe
