"Greenlight" lyrics

"Greenlight"

Two chains
Hanging off your chest when you kiss me
So strange
Who'd've thought we'd get here with our history?

You know I tried to be what he thought I was, I wasn't
I tried to be everything I thought he wanted
And truthfully, I'm so over but stuck on it
And if I'm honest

I'm still waiting at the green light, I'd tell you what I feel like, but
I can't go
I'm still tryna make a beeline, stuck up in a rewrite of
The same song
Band-Aids and bullet holes don't go
I can't unhear shit I've been told
Guess I never healed right, maybe it's a green light, but
I can't go

Midnight
120 on the PCH, just you and me
Babe, you know I can't lie
The most alive I think I'll maybe ever be, oh

You know I tried to be what he thought I was, I wasn't
I tried to be everything I thought he wanted
And truthfully, I'm so over but stuck on it
And if I'm honest

I'm still waiting at the green light, I'd tell you what I feel like, but
I can't go
I'm still tryna make a beeline, stuck up in a rewrite of
The same song
Band-Aids and bullet holes don't go
I can't unhear shit I've been told
Guess I never healed right, maybe it's a green light, but
I can't go

I can't go, I can't let go
I can't go, I can't let go
I can't go, I can't let go
I can't go

I'm still waiting at the green light, I'd tell you what I feel like, but
I can't go
I'm still tryna make a beeline, stuck up in a rewrite of
The same song
Band-Aids and bullet holes don't go
I can't unhear shit I've been told
Guess I never healed right, maybe it's a green light, but
I can't go

Maybe it's a green light, green light, green—
Light
Maybe it's a green light, green light, green—
I can't go
