Lyldoll Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
My god, oh my goddess, I need some help, mm
Been feeling my chest with the wrong feelings
By the tip of my tongue tryna get revenge
Tryna find out if life is double-ended
But it turns out the door isn′t double-hinged
I've been talkin′ way too wordy
I don't feel it like you want me to
′Cause it′s not what happens when I'm feelin′ you
So you been usin' words like "Forever"
I been takin′ turns for the better
I keep breaking, I keep breaking bones, crossin' fingers
′Cause you don't think I love you, you gon find out
That I could be yours, and you could be mine
If you get it, would you be mine?
I've been talkin′ way too
Wordy for the way that
I′ve been feeling lately
I wish that I could say that
I've been talkin′ way too
Wordy for the way that
I've been feeling lately
I wish that I could say that, mm
Feel like I need to get outside
Myself
My god, oh my goddess, I think I
Need help
Feel like I need to get outside
Myself
My god, oh my goddess, I think I
Need help
I′ve been talkin' way too wordy
For the way that I′ve been feeling now
I don't feel it like you want me to
'Cause it′s not what happens when I′m feelin' you
