Glow Now Lyrics
Tell me what you want from me
'Cause I can't seem to get it right
Had faith in all your promises
But now your words come screaming back
[Pre-Hook: Taliwhoah]
Blow after blow
I keep standing to search for the love in your eyes
Making excuses to cover the bruises on top of your lies
[Hook: Taliwhoah]
You can't say you love me if you don't really mean it
Don't really mean it, don-don't really mean it
You can't say you love me if you don't really mean it
Don't really mean it, don-don't really mean it
[Post-Hook: Genesis Owusu]
You don't know what you say, say, say
Heart broke in a day, day, day
You don't know what you say, say, say
Heart broke in a day, day, day
You don't know what you say, say, say
Heart broke in a day
[Verse 2: Taliwhoah]
I never thought I'd
Have to choose between my heart or my mind
But this is driving me crazy
I need what's left of me to save me
Depended on you for too long
For your love to fill this void
But what use am I to myself
If your love doesn't love me back
You can't say you love me if you don't really mean it
Don't really mean it, don-don't really mean it
You can't say you love me if you don't really mean it
Don't really mean it, don-don't really mean it
[Post-Hook: Genesis Owusu]
You don't know what you say, say, say
Heart broke in a day, day, day
You don't know what you say, say, say
Heart broke in a day, day, day
You don't know what you say, say, say
Heart broke in a day
[Verse 3: Genesis Owusu]
I've been in the shadows with a hidden heart for sometime
(HEAR YOUR HEART SHATTER SHATTER SHATTER)
Hold my chest to your ear, do you hear no sign?
(HEAR YOUR HEART SHATTER SHATTER SHATTER)
Venim sounding sweet to me soon
With your tongue as a womb but my heart in the tomb
Brushing off my pain with the broom
And your love only looms when I'm not in the room
Flowers drying just as they bloom
Trying not to assume that your smile heralds doom
Smell your scent of perfume, kiss of death with the fume
I refuse to resume, you are nothing to a goon
Open up your eyes, I don't have that much time
Baby realise, I don't have that much time
[Hook: Taliwhoah]
You can't say you love me if you don't really mean it
Don't really mean it, don-don't really mean it
You can't say you love me if you don't really mean it
Don't really mean it, don-don't really mean it
[Outro]
