1121 (John Cunningham Demo) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, I won't die for love
But I've got a body here to bury
And if truth be told, it's scary
'Cause my shoulders are heavy already
And, yeah, I know
The parts of myself that I've hated
And I can't tell which ones are mine
And which I created

[Chorus]
But I won't die for love
But ever since I met you
You could have my heart
And I would break it for you
And I won't die for love
But ever since I met you
You could have my heart
And I would break it for you

[Verse 2]
Take one in the temple, my tongue is a vessel
I try to be careful with the thing inside my chest
You shoot for the memory so you can forget me
I'll leave if you let me, ooh
[Chorus]
But I won't die for love
But ever since I met you
You could have my heart
And I would break it for you

[Bridge]
Please don't leave (I'm runnin' out of time to tell you)
Don't leave me in the shape you left me (I'm runnin' out of things that I regret)
Please don't leave (I'm runnin' out of time to tell you)
Don't leave me in the shape you left me (I'm runnin' out of things that I regret)
Please don't leave
Don't leave me in the shape you left me (You took me)
Please don't leave
Just leave me in the place you found me safe and soundly

[Chorus]
I won't die for love
But ever since I met you
You could have my heart
And I would break it for you

[Outro]
Well, I won't die for love
But ever since I met you
You could have my heart
And I would break it for you

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 [?]
