Don't leave
SVUVN Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You said you need me
Don't leave
You'll never see me
Don't leave
You don't let me breathe
Baby
Why don't we just freeze
Don't leave
As coarse as salt
But it's not your fault
I doubt your want
Baby
Please breathe for me (save me)
Cause you're getting so weak
It's all at it's peak
You said you need me (pretend)
Don't leave
You'll never see me (changes)
Don't leave
You don't let me breathe (around me)
Baby
Why don't we just freeze
Don't leave
You don't let me breathe
Baby




Why don't we just freeze
Don't leave
