"You Broke My Heart So Gently" lyrics

"You Broke My Heart So Gently"

Boo, I need you around the pressure's gettin' way too heavy now
And you should know that I'm not ready, no
Not good at bein' alone, I know you know that I am empty now
Gettin' to sleep so very rarely now

We're on different paths, I've known it for sometime
Girl, this shit's so sad and it's like every night
This home just ain't a home, I know you broke my heart so gently
How does missing you just feel unhealthy now?

I could be chillin' with a girl that inspires inner brilliance
Now she's off on her own in the distance
I can't hit her on the phone for assistance, though I've been wishin'
This could be different, I ain't got time to be ignorant
But I can't cut you off like Vincent
So I try my best to keep distance, fight off the system

That makes me the victim, uh, it's like a fall of a kingdom
Held it up buy it's now just a prison
I can't leave my house without missin' all of our visions
This is a sickness, or am I just a witness?
Or could I put an end to this business?
Tie my shoes and walk out of this stillness, ain't got the fitness, no

I don't need a lot, I just want the best now
This been at my neck now, I've been feelin' low
Hate the way it's gone, my life's such a mess now
Can't deal with the stress now I've been feelin'

Boo, I need you around the pressure's gettin' way too heavy now
And you should know that I'm not ready, no
Not good at bein' alone, I know you know that I am empty now
Gettin' to sleep so very rarely now

We're on different paths, I've known it for sometime
Girl, this shit's so sad and it's like every night
This home just ain't a home, I know you broke my heart so gently
How does missing you just feel unhealthy now?

Bottlin' up all of my own soul, gettin' over it, I don't know
I'ma be straight, shit ain't been great
Feels like I'm dyin' but it's so slow
Wakin' me up with that mornin' boo
Thinkin' 'bout that and I feel so blue
Maybe I'll wait and it'll be fate, or am I just sittin' in my own tomb?

This ain't my life and it's not right, I'm thinkin' 'bout you all of my nights
I wanna catch flights but I don't like the fear to fall or what that ignites
You were my type, not one of my stripes
I think of you and I get good vibes
At least before you went out of my sight, yeah

I don't need a lot, I just want the best now
This been at my neck now, I've been feelin' low
Hate the way it's gone, my life's such a mess now
Can't deal with the stress now I've been feelin' low

I don't need a lot, I just want the best now
This been at my neck now, I've been feelin' low
Hate the way it's gone, my life's such a mess now
Can't deal with the stress now I've been feelin'

Boo, I need you around the pressure's gettin' way too heavy now
And you should know that I'm not ready, no
Not good at bein' alone, I know you know that I am empty now
Gettin' to sleep so very rarely now

We're on different paths, I've known it for sometime
Girl, this shit's so sad and it's like every night
This home just ain't a home, I know you broke my heart so gently
How does missing you just feel unhealthy now?
