lyrics

Walk the line
Knowing it’s not in fashion
Heart on the sleeve of my satin blouse
Going to your house
Every night
Looking for satisfaction
You could be a lover
But honestly I’ve had too many to count

Part of me is over it
Pretend I don’t give a shit
I answer your messages
Sit and I question why people leave read receipts on

And I’m just a pawn
In some game of love
This isn’t me at all
Need to change it up

I’ve seen the light
But it doesn’t mean that much
Can’t fall asleep
I may never get up
Into the night
I think my time is up
I’ve seen the light
And that’s enough -----

So I try softness
Sometimes mistaken for kindness
But if I’m too kind that’s weakness
‘Till I become blind
And sleepless
Can’t treat this

Oh I’m faithful
To those I feel deserve love
But I guess that’s everyone
Not sure that I have enough

Nobody’s made me feel this way
And now I’ll never be the same
Hang up the phone and scream your name
Again again
But I like the pain

I’ve seen the light
But it doesn’t mean that much
Can’t fall asleep
I may never get up
Into the night
I think my time is up
I’ve seen the light
That’s enough
