A Kiss Won't Make This Better
Lorene Drive Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You put
So much effort in to it
Does it feel good to hurt someone
Trying to make you proud

You put
So much effort in to it
Does it make you feel good
A kiss won't this make this better

This is my last good bye
A kiss won't make this better
A kiss won't make this right
I know you got my letter

Just unlock the door
Are you sitting down
I think you might want to
It seems you have everything





Under control, this is my life
One thing to hold on to
