Death By a Thousand Cuts

My, my, my, my
(My, my, my, my)
My, my, my, my
(My, my, my, my)

My, my, my, my
(My, my, my, my)
My, my, my, my
(My, my, my, my)

Saying goodbye is death by a thousand cuts
Flashbacks waking me up
I get drunk, but it’s not enough
’Cause the morning comes
And you’re not my baby

I look through the windows of this love
Even though we boarded them up
Chandelier still flickering here
‘Cause I can’t pretend
It’s okay when it’s not
It’s death by a thousand cuts

I dress to kill my time
I take the long way home
I ask the traffic lights if it’ll be alright
They say, “I don’t know”

And what once was ours
Is no one’s now
I see you everywhere
The only thing we share
Is this small town

You said it was a great love
One for the ages
But if the story’s over
Why am I still writing pages?

‘Cause saying goodbye is death by a thousand cuts
Flashbacks waking me up
I get drunk, but it’s not enough
’Cause the morning comes
And you’re not my baby

I look through the windows of this love
Even though we boarded them up
Chandelier still flickering here
‘Cause I can’t pretend
It’s okay when it’s not
It’s death by a thousand cuts

My heart, my hips
My body, my love
Tryna find a part of me
That you didn’t touch
Gave up on me
Like I was a bad drug
Now I’m searching for signs
In a haunted club

Our songs, our films
United, we stand
Our country
Guess it was a lawless land
Quiet my fears
With the touch of your hand
Paper cut stains
From my paper-thin plans

My time, my wine
My spirit, my trust
Tryna find a part of me
You didn’t take up
Gave you so much
But it wasn’t enough
But I’ll be alright
It’s just a thousand cuts

I get drunk, but it’s not enough
‘Cause you’re not my baby

I look through the windows of this love
Even though we boarded them up
Chandelier still flickering here
‘Cause I can’t pretend
It’s okay when it’s not

No, it’s not
It’s death by a thousand cuts

(You didn’t touch)
Tryna find a part of me
That you didn’t touch
My body, my love
My trust
(It’s death by a thousand cuts)
But it wasn’t enough
It wasn’t enough, no, no

I take the long way home
I ask the traffic lights if it’ll be alright
They say, “I don’t know”
