Saint Mesa Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Whether you're coming home
Tell me, tell me why
These winds feel so cold
Oh, I can't keep with you now
Your lies turn my head around
Oh, oh it's a jungle
My head's stuck up in the clouds
Oh, stuck in the jungle
I can't wait for you
Forever and ever in the dark
Oh, please, please let me go
These [?] are calling out my name
Oh, I can't keep with you now
Your lies turn my head around
Oh, oh it's a jungle
Oh, I can't keep with you now
My head's stuck up in the clouds
Oh, stuck in the jungle
You got my spinning now
You tied my hands and chained me back
[?] shut the door
[?] you ask for more
I'm so tired and it's okay
I'm begging you, I'm begging you
I'm begging you, please let me go
Oh, I can't keep with you now
Your lies turn my head around
Oh, oh it's a jungle
Oh, I can't keep with you now
My head's stuck up in the clouds
Oh, stuck in the jungle
Oh, I can't keep with you now
Your lies turn my head around
Oh, oh it's a jungle
