j carp - haunting me lyrics
[verse 1]
i was stranded in this lonesome town
but i felt your hand reach out for mine as i looked around
as streams of salt ran from my eyes
as you looked at me and couldn’t help but form a smile
[pre+chorus]
i ignored the wrong way signs
captivated by the bluest skies
never thought you’d paint them gray
[chorus]
i’m blue in the face
i’ve held my breath for too long
i’d disappear without a trace
if you dropped my hand and left me alone
i’d gather up my tears
that i’ve lost throughout the years
you can keep my name, you can keep a part of me
but you won’t keep haunting me
[verse 2]
i was caught in this bittersweet
i could have ran away but my stubbornness prevented me
in a playground of misery
i once thought was happiness until i felt you bury me
[pre chorus 2]
in the sands of my sadness
that fell to as my time ran out
my screams become a yawn
[chorus]
i’m blue in the face
i’ve held my breath for too long
i’d disappear without a trace
if you dropped my hand and left me alone
i’d gather up my tears
that i’ve lost throughout the years
you can keep my name, you can keep a part of me
but you won’t keep haunting me
[bridge]
i’ve tried changing for the better
and i’ve tried changing you
like a smile that’s scarred forever
the pain keeps bleeding through
but i found my sense of belief
as the rain came over me
and washed your mark away
[verse 3]
now this silence is deafening
it might take me years to not find this peace unsettling
terrified of the sunrise
cause you took away my bluest skies
but now i see the light of day
[chorus]
i was blue in the face
i held my breath for too long
now i walk away with grace
from the cruelest place i’ve ever known
i gathered up my tears
that i lost throughout the years
you’ll keep my name, you’ll keep a part of me (oh+oh)
yeah i gave you my best, but you’ll never get the best of me
cause you won’t keep haunting me
