Merle Lyrics

Don't you leave me hanging around for long

Whisper secrets that I need to know

No rest for your wicked mind that's pounding out your head



Make it seem real, real enough for me

Sing about love and what makes you happy

We can hum to the sound of my own sadness for tonight



You make it seem real enough, real enough for me

You make it seem real enough, real enough for me



Don't you leave me hanging around for long

Spin me backwards, look what I've missed out on

No room to ignore yourself

Now you bloom into what you are



You make it seem real еnough, real enough for me

Don't say a word, strum your chord, sing your mеlody

I pull the shades, look outside, nothing I want to see

Don't say a word, close your eyes, sing your melody



Don't you leave me hanging around for long

Don't you leave me hanging around for long

Don't you leave me hanging around for long

Don't you leave me hanging around for long...



Pictures of you, innocent and free

A couple things that you will never be

I play to the sound of my own sadness for weeks on end



I look and I see your scars

And I don't think you're wrong

You make it seem real enough

But it doesn't last for long...



So don't you put me in the lions den if you don't want to fuck me up

Don't throw me to the ground when I don't need picking up

I'll be everywhere at once, for whatever you want

I'll take you to the mountain top, so you see how far I've come
