Token
Verse 1:
I fell off the world
Guess I'd been holding on too long
Who wants to be that girl
Living under a lie that desire's gone?
Carving my face on your heart
To show you what it feels like
I don't feel right
We're more together apart
It's underneath the streetlights
I see you
Chorus:
I waited for years
I harvested tears
For every glass on the shelf
I wanted to tell
But I buried my fears
Forsaking my mental and my physical health
But now that the fever
Has begun to fade
I'm drawing a line
Under time that we made
And I'm ready to steal
Something that feels
Like real love
Verse 2:
I'm calling time
Faking sighing, even crying
When the job is done
You're rising never to shine
Soft and sleepy, losing hope
Before the morning comes
Shining a light in the dark
To show you what it feels like
You can't see right
You're suffocating the spark
And turning off the daylight
But I see you
Chorus:
I waited for years
I harvested tears
For every glass on the shelf
I wanted to tell
But I buried my fears
Forsaking my mental and my physical health
But now that the fever
Has begun to fade
I'm drawing a line
Under time that we made
And I'm ready to steal
Something that feels
Like real love
I'm waiting to feel
Something that feels
Like real love
I never wanted
To see you broken
I only wanted some time
I never set out
To hurt your heart
The way you hurt mine
A photograph
Or a tender token
A sentiment or a sign
So make the most
Of the things we shared
'Cause tomorrow's mine
