Desperate
Nelories Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

Desperate is the word
that can describe how I feel
Desperate is the word
that reminds me
of those hard days
Desperate is the word
that I've always hated so much
Desperate is the word you use

when you're confused
How come would not
I stop this scrabble game?
Or am I waiting for
that nicotine again?
How come could not
I stop this scrabble game?
Hope it's still on the way
Desperate is the word
that can describe how I feel
Desperate is the word
that reminds me
of those hard days
Desperate is the word
that I've always hated so much
Desperate is the word you use
when you're confused
How come would not
I stop this scrabble game?
Or am I waiting for
that nicotine again?
How come could not
I stop this scrabble game?
Hope it's still on the way

How come would not
I stop this scrabble game?
Or am I waiting for
that nicotine again?
How come could not
I stop this scrabble game?
Hope it's still on the way
Desperate is the word
that can describe how I feel
Desperate is the word
that reminds me
of those hard days
Desperate is the word
that I've always hated so much

Desperate Desperate Desperate
Desperate Desperate Desperate
