Delusion
Sweet Coins Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

My mental health is declining and my eyes are drying out
I'm having conversations with my pillow and myself
It's been a tough past year for me personally
I've lost a few friends and a few meant to be's
I'm struggling to cope
I'm lost in the middle of finding who I'm meant to be
Am I a delusion to you or am I lost at sea
I've dreamt about the times where you said goodbye
Or when you broke my heart in two
Where our love had died
I'm losing touch of who I am and my eyes drain out the tears
We're stuck inside a universe where I'm heartbroken every year
Now don't tell me I'll be fine, I don't want to hear it for the second time
All I need to do is cut your toxicity out my life
So you've taken my hand and you've pulled me close
Held on tight like you'd never let go
Now what happened to those times
We've talked about taking it slow
But we never thought about where we'd go
And It kills me that I'll never know
I'm losing touch of who I am and my eyes drain out the tears
We're stuck inside a universe where I'm heartbroken every year
Now don't tell me I'll be fine, I don't want to hear it for the second time
All I need to do is cut your toxicity out my life
I need you gone
I need you gone
I need you gone
I need you gone
I need you gone
I need you gone
I need you gone
I need you gone
I need you gone
I need you gone
I need you gone
I need you gone
I need you gone
I need you gone
I need you gone
I need you gone
I'm losing touch of who I am and my eyes drain out the tears
We're stuck inside a universe where I'm heartbroken every year
Now don't tell me I'll be fine, I don't want to hear it for the second time
All I need to do is cut your toxicity out my life
I need you gone
I need you gone
I need you gone
I need you gone
I need you gone
I need you gone




I need you gone
I need you gone
