Lyrics Hours - TAAHLIAH

Keys down and you're ready to talk
Battered nikes on your white wooden floor
The bed engraved with the nights from before
A feeling that maybe you just wanna be

With somebody else wrapped up in your sheets
To cover up all the reminders of me
But do you know how it feels?
What a kick in the teeth
I hid in your house
Spitting blood in the sink

I've been running to all the places you might go
But the only place I ever catch you is in my mind
It's comforting when I pass by your house
But I don't ever wanna step inside
...
Hold your tongue back in
If you give me a reason, I'll stay and listen
But I won't sit here and wait for a sign from heaven
With all this pain, you'll slowly change place in my mind

And I think about the early hours when you were mine
The weight of your insecurity held over me
Let me go but keep us close inside your memory
Now you're just someone who used to be inside of me

I grew tired of being someone you'd hide
Always chasing, I was falling behind
A piece of you that I was holding too tight
Left alone because that's what you decide

I just wanted to see you
I used to be a part of your life
A part of your body
A part of your heart
When you were inside me
When you were inside me
You took away my heart and put it in another body
