Signs
Zaye Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I keep playing these games
When I know I won't win
I keep hurtin'
I'm so amazed
We'll never be on the same page
We never agree
It's always you're right I'm wrong
An out of body experience
You'd see a difference
I resented you because I was to weak
To leave
And for that I'm sincerely sorry
I'm sorry that I was too clingy
I guess my love
Was too heavy to carry
Some days I'd wish for this chapter to hurry
I'd be beside you but thinkin' of some one who
Could treat me better
That should've been a sign
Who could love me better
