Slow Death Lyrics

I feel relieved when your name flashes on my screen

Still waiting for one of us to diagnose what that means

But I'm not ready for that conversation

I feel excited when you look me in my eyes

The whole room slips away. Babe, it's just you and I

But it's forbidden. It's not supposed to happen

Unless, of course, you'd like to let it happen

And I'm up in my bedroom

And I wonder if you're ever gonna come around

Praying, hoping, dreaming that I make you see me differently

And laying in my bed

Sooner or later, you know you'll have to let me down

Am I a traitor or your savior? Either way, oh

I know that it's a slow death

I feel exhausted every time you bring him up

Been with him three years, honey, ain't that enough

But you're not ready for that conversation

I feel psychotic 'cuz I know I'll never win

No matter what I do, you're always choosing him

I'll win the battle, but the war's already lost

But, if death is in my cards, your love is worth the cost

And I'm up in my bedroom

And I wonder if you're ever gonna come around

Praying, hoping, dreaming that I make you see me differently

And laying in my bed

Sooner or later, you know you'll have to let me down

Am I a traitor or your savior? Either way, oh

I know that it's a slow death

Will I choke on the smoke or drown in the rain

Will I ask you to leave him or live with the pain

Will you set me on fire like the night when you kissed my lips

When both of us knew we shouldn't do this

And I'm up in my bedroom

And I wonder if you're ever gonna come around

Praying, hoping, dreaming that I make you see me differently

And laying in my bed

Sooner or later, you know you'll have to let me down

Am I a traitor or your savior? Either way, oh

I know that it's a slow death

Will I choke on the smoke or drown in the rain

Will I ask you to leave him or live with the pain

It's a slow death
