Id
Mr. Sam feat. ClAud 9 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Can I just say asking you out was the worst mistake I ever made
If I had known how you'd turn things around, I would've easily stayed in my own lane
Life goes on
Friends take sides
Never in a million years did I think that it would be mine
So just go
I'm better off waiting here for the next romantic train
Cause all you did was run
leaving me standing here foolish in the pouring rain
I'm so hollow, you're so cutthroat
You say you're sorry to justify our fate
So look me in the eyes and tell me you lied
And i'll tell you "I'd like it better if you would stay away"
Stay away
Can I just say you'll never get someone if you can't even play the game
I strike a match and they all flee
God, what is it with me wanting a little bit of normalcy?
Life goes on
I'll meet someone
And they won't give me the bullshit excuses you reserved for me
So just go
I'm better off waiting here for the next romantic train
Cause all you did was run
leaving me standing here foolish in the pouring rain
I'm so hollow, you're so cutthroat
You say you're sorry to justify our fate
So look me in the eyes and tell me you lied
And i'll tell you "I'd like it better if you would stay away"
Stay away
Time after time, you put a mark on my life
And I deal with shit that isn't even mine
Wish I could save them, but they all are traitors
They're being nice just to not break a vibe
Just admit that you lied
I'm so hollow
You're so cutthroat




You say you're sorry to justify our fate
But I'd like it better if you would just stay away
