worth the kind that burns - elxi lyrics lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i was standing in the cold, asking for a spark
holding out my hands while they stayed in the dark
every word i whispered felt like a crime
paying with my pride just to buy their time

[pre+chorus]
but i learned that begging just breaks your own name
love’s not a favor, it’s not a game

[chorus]
i won’t plead for the crumbs they call care
i won’t trade my soul just to say they were there
if it’s not freely given, it’s already gone
i’m worth the kind that burns on its own

[verse 2]
i used to think that patience could change the stone
that if i stayed long enough, i’d be their home
but love that’s rationed is a slow disease
you heal the day you finally leave

[pre+chorus]
now i see my reflection through cleaner glass
i don’t chase what was never built to last
[chorus]
i won’t plead for the crumbs they call care
i won’t trade my soul just to say they were there
if it’s not freely given, it’s already gone
i’m worth the kind that burns on its own

[bridge]
no more asking for hands that don’t reach
no more kneeling at an empty seat
i’ll spend my love where it’s met halfway
and never again where it fades away

[final chorus]
i won’t plead for the crumbs they call care
i won’t trade my soul just to say they were there
if it’s not freely given, it’s already gone
i’m worth the kind that burns on its own—
yeah, i’m worth the kind that burns on its own
