The Cut That Always Bleeds

de Olivia Dean

I've been on a tight rope walking
Never had a fear of falling down
Every step is more unsteady
Never been so far from solid ground
I thought I saw you there to catch me
But now I look again, you're out of reach
There's nothing, no hands, no man for me
Tryna love cross a minefield
Everywhere I look is no mans land
If you take a step then I will
Its harder when you don't know where you stand
I thought that you'd be there to meet me
But now I look again, you're out of reach
There's nothing, no hands, no man for me

God I was hoping, hoping you might just heard the news
Not like I'm broken, so what is it you're so scared to touch
Why you always giving up

Every time I think we're somewhere
Close to conversation, it's the same
You'd rather be alone and out there
And let me love a stranger with your name
Why can't you be better for me
How come I've been seen all I see
There's nothing, no hands, no man for me
Singing nothing, no hands, no man for me
Hmm

I know it takes time to heal
You never had no man for real
I know it takes time to heal
You never had no man for real
Hmm
