Detach
Nick Alexandr Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I made some mistakes but
You threw it in my face I'm
Scared of being lonely again I don't wanna relapse
Cause loving you's like rehab
Always seem to fall back
I can't get you out my fucking mind I gotta detach, yeah

Know I'm gonna fucking cave and call you
Say you wanna see my baby don't try to
Pretend that you're over me girl
We both know where you wanna be girl
Between the sheets where we might go crazy
Took shots now I'm feeling kinda hazy
Sipping Hennessy in the hotel lobby
Looking at me like we might not take it slow
I'm in control
Hands on me oh now you know
We don't talk we just let go
You've missed me baby girl I know
Like oh I really miss your touch girl
So when I kiss you baby do you feel the rush girl
She a bad girl always getting Into trouble
Drinking till she empties out the bottle
Tryna find somewhere to go, don't fall now
But when I hit your line you're on your way round way round

I made some mistakes but
You threw it in my face I'm
Scared of being lonely again I don't wanna relapse
Cause loving you's like rehab
Always seem to fall back
I can't get you out my fucking mind I gotta detach, yeah
Why does it feel so good knowing I'm so misunderstood
You think I've finally changed my ways but I'm just digging my own grave
There's still so much that I could say but what we have is just a phase
I know you think you finally know me, but I'm lying to your face

Don't tell me that you care
Cause baby you manipulating that ain't fair
I don't feel nothing but the cold despair
I'm headed for disaster you gone meet me there
When I look in those eyes I'm hypnotized
She telling me secrets and spilling lies
I know you do this shit with other guys
But I don't give a fuck this is about tonight
Once upon a time you saved my life
Now the feelings I feel just don't feel right
We still doing shit like we never fell out of love

I made some mistakes but
You threw it in my face I'm
Scared of being lonely again I don't wanna relapse
Cause loving you's like rehab
Always seem to fall back
I can't get you out my fucking mind I gotta detach, yeah
Why does it feel so good knowing I'm so misunderstood
You think I've finally changed my ways but I'm just digging my own grave




There's still so much that I could say but what we have is just a phase
I know you think you finally know me, but I'm lying to your face
