lyrics

If I could write a letter to show you, like us, the ink's run out
If I could sing a song to show you without you I can still be loud
I'll paint the sky to demonstrate that you're clouding up my head
I'll dive from cliff to bottom so my memories run dead

Can't escape you
Even if I wanted to
Just one look I'm in your debt

You're the wolf in my tales
An example when I fail
And I didn't want you to
Be the knife in my back
Be the joker out the pack
And leave me cold until my lips turn blue
You're the lyric in my songs
A reminder when I'm wrong
And I didn't ask you to
Be the snake in the grass
Throwing stones at the glass
After all we've been through
After all we've been through

I'll run a mile to show you you're not as strong as you think
I'll sail a boat to show you that even you can't make me sink
I'll stay awake forever to keep you from my dreams
I'll sew myself together 'cuz you tore me at the seams

Can't break through
But I never say two
Words and they are: I regret

You're the wolf in my tales
An example when I fail
And I didn't want you to
Be the knife in my back
Be the joker out the pack
And leave me cold until my lips turn blue (oh)
You're the lyric in my songs
A reminder when I'm wrong
And I didn't ask you to
Be the snake in the grass
Throwing stones at the glass
After all we've been through
After all we've been through

about

Lena Lottie England, UK

I've been writing and composing since I was 13 and after a good 12 years I thought it's high time I do something about my songs. My middle names are Helena Charlotte, which is why I'm Lena Lottie. I hope you enjoy my work! Enjoy!
