lyrics
There's a chill in the air can't you feel it, can't you feel it,
can't you tell what it is?
I can tell by your stare that you're leaving, that you're leaving
tell me, what did I miss?
I want run into your arms but you can't see in the dark, can you?
I want to draw all over you, your skin is mine to mark
You make me scared, I'm unprepared but I wanna make you call my name,
I wanna make you call my name
I turn away, rejecting you, I don't want to feel anything you do
But I wanna make you call my name, I wanna make you call my name
Oh babe you're not the one and I'm not healthy for you
true lovers we aren't, they're so hard to find, they're so far and few
Get out of my head, get out of my bed, there's no room for two
I'm just over this, I'm just so over this
And I'm not waiting for you on the other side
Now there's a chill in the air can't you feel it, can't you feel it,
can't you tell what I mean?
You've been blinded by my lies we've been so blind all this time and
you still expect to see?
Oh I can feel it, I can feel it, I can feel the pressure and it gets to my head
but knives, and pens, and nails, and things all in your skin and all from me, they make me forget
I want to run my hands up and down you but I can't see in this light
Your smile fills my heart with guilt and I can,
I can feel you inside of me
Do I make you scared? I could never care
But I wanna make you call my name, I just wanna make you call my name
I turn away, rejecting you, I don't want to feel anything you do
But I wanna make you call my name, Oh I wanna make you call my name
Oh babe, you're not the one
and I'm not healthy for you
true lovers we aren't, they're so hard to find, they're so far and few
Get outta my head, get outta my bed, there's no room for two
I'm just over this, I'm such a bitch
And I'm not waiting for you on the other side
Oh cos' babe, you're not, you're not the one
and I'm not healthy, healthy for you
true lovers we aren't, they're so hard to find, they're so far and few
Get outta my head, get outta my bed, there's no room for two
I wish I was over this, I really don't want this, I want to wait for you
But my love has died
Yes, I want to wait for you but my love has died,
So I'm not waiting for you on the other side..
