"Brittle" lyrics

"Brittle"

Remember when you used to drive me round in the dark
Just so I could fall asleep in the back of your car
You'd move a mountain if ever I asked
And nothing was ever, ever too far

Wish the pain would just meet me in the middle
Ease off just a little
Damn, I'm feeling brittle
There's nothing ever written
Compares to what I'm living
Or gives me what I'm missing
Oh, oh, oh

I don't want the sun or the sky
Ain't no friend of mine
'Cause I've been crying rivers tonight
'Cause you're not with us tonight

You used to play music, made the neighbors complain, mmh-hm
And made me do the dishes, it was our little game
You'd play it louder, the deeper you heard
You let me dress up and borrow your skirt

Wish the pain would just meet me in the middle
Ease off just a little
Got me feeling brittle
There's nothing ever written
Compares to what I'm living
Or gives me what I'm missing
Oh, oh, oh

I don't want the sun or the sky
Ain't no friend of mine
'Cause I've been crying rivers tonight
'Cause you're not with us tonight

I don't want the sun or the sky
Ain't no friend of mine
'Cause I've been crying rivers tonight
'Cause you're not with us tonight

Don't try to make it better
Don't try make me forget ya
Took the sunlight outta my life
And I don't wanna be better
'Cause I don't wanna forget ya
You can tell a light switched on in my life

I don't want the sun or the sky
Ain't no friend of mine
'Cause I've been crying rivers tonight
'Cause you're not with us tonight

I don't want the sun or the sky
Ain't no friend of mine
'Cause I've been crying rivers tonight
'Cause you're not with us tonight

'Cause I've been crying rivers tonight
'Cause I've been crying rivers tonight
'Cause I've been crying rivers tonight
'Cause I've been crying rivers tonight
