Ryn Weaver Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Watch it
Watch it
Watch it
Lost in the cracks
Of the landslide
You saw me slipping on
I'm feeling lost
Feeling tongue-tied
And now I'm frozen
In your headlights
Deep in the haze
Of your love high
I used to soar on
The live wire
I'm coming down
From your supply
And I don't know
If you can make right
I can't take it
From the day I saw
My heart start breaking
No one saved me
I can't take it
Can't believe I went and
Lost you baby
Earth keeps shaking
All around
Oh, you let me down
And I can't take it
From the day I saw
My heart start breaking
No one saved me
Watch it
Watch it
Shot through the cracks
Of the earthquake
My body's moving
Into retrograde
I'm feeling loose
Feeling untamed
And you're the dynamite
In my chains
Deep in the trench
Of the crossfire
You shot me down
From the live wire
Tossed to the loss
In your love game
You beat me cheating to cheating
And now I can't play
I can't take it
From the day I saw
My heart start breaking
No one saved me
I can't take it
Can't believe I went and
Lost you baby
Earth keeps shaking
All around
Oh, you let me down
And I can't take it
From the day I saw
My heart start breaking
No one saved me
Hit the ground
Running up from you
Baby you know I don't want to
No I want you
But there's nothing
Left to say
Lost in the riddle you gave me
Caught in the middle
You played me
See so plainly
But there's nothing left to say
I should've known
I should've known
I can't take it
From the day I saw
My heart start breaking
No one saved me
I can't take it
Can't believe I went and
Lost you baby
Earth keeps shaking
All around
Oh, you let me down
And I can't take it
From the day I saw
My heart start breaking
No one saved me
Watch it
Watch it
Watch it
Watch it
