Still
U.V. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You shouldn't be
Although I wish I was there too
Back and forth
Through the course
Of the last few years
My mind is not made up
Still
To everyone
You don't have to lie to me
Is your sight
Without light
You can't see me in the dark
When will I start working for me
When will I stand tall like the trees
Am I just paying for sin
Still
