[ verse ]
Gm7 A#7
head under water
Dm F
and they tell me to breathe easy for a while

the breathing gets harder , even i know that

[ verse ]
you made room for me , but it’s too soon to see
if i’m happy in your hands
i’m unusually hard to hold on to

blank stares at blank pages

[ verse ]
i learned the hard way
that they all say things you wanna hear
my heavy heart sinks deep down under you
and your twisted words , your help just hurts
you are not what i thought you were
hello to high and dry

[ pre – chorus ]
convinced me to please you
made me think that i need this too
i’m trying to let you hear me as i Am

[ chorus ]
i’m not gonna write you a love song
’cause you asked for it
’cause you need one , you see
i’m not gonna write you a love song
’cause you tell me it’s make or breaking this
if you’re on your way ,
i’m not gonna write you to stay
if all you have is leaving
i’mma need a better reason to write you a love song today
