±ªþ³§ Lyrics

[Verse 1: Theresa Jarvis]
Hold on a minute
My anxiety's just about to kick in
Where did it go wrong?
You taste different
It's nothing like before, yeah, what's missing?
I liked it when it hurt

[Chorus: Theresa Jarvis]
Doing my best, stick around
But when you're broken like me, you gotta get out
Feel me now? (Feel me now)
And it's nights like this when I'm on my own
Realise that you'll never feel like home
No, I can't feel you now (Feel me now)
Yeah, I try my best to stick around
But when you're broken like me, you just gotta get out
Do you (Feel me now)

[Verse 2: Theresa Jarvis]
Hold on a minute
My anxiety's just about to kick in
Where did it go wrong?
You taste different
It's nothing like before, yeah, what's missing?
I liked it when it hurt
I played with fire and I got burnt, burnt
[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3: Oli Sykes]
Death-defying decisions
Are the only ones that make my temple glisten
So play me like a xylophone (I'm not fu–)
I'm sorry, but you got it twisted (So dra–)
I don't mind the heat, it's the kitchen
Now I'm out my comfort zone, ooh

[Chorus: Oli Sykes]
So I try my best to sing along
But when I'm put up on the spot, I get it wr-wrong

[Verse 4: Theresa Jarvis]
Moments we shared
I only ever see them in my nightmares
Don't wanna wake up
We existed
You gave me reason for our living
You set me on fire
You set me on fire

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge: Oli Sykes]
Oh, I'm somewhere else
I'm somewhere else
Oh, I'm suffering again
I'm somewhere else
Oh, I'm suffering again
[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus: Theresa Jarvis]
Moments
Do you feel me now? (Feel me now)
And it's nights like this when I'm on my own
And I realise that you'll never feel like home
No, I can't feel you now (Feel me now)
And I try my best to stick around
But when you're broken like me, you just gotta get out
Do you (Feel me now)
And I try my best to stick around
But when you're broken

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
