Subside Lyrics by Alessia Cara

Love & Hyperbole

2025

[Intro]
That's what they say
Time's just pocket change
That I'm wasting away
Grieving what's still alive
And fighting with an ache that won't subside

[Chorus]
Nothing good ever lasts
The girl I was never came back
Staying up, falling off track
So much I wish I knew
Flew too close to the sun
Who I was, she was made up
Threw a punch, had to take one

[Post-Chorus]
It's what they say
Time's just pocket change (Ooh)
That I'm wasting away
Grieving what's still alive (Ooh)
And fighting with an ache that won't subside

[Verse]
Is it already over?
Sidewalk scraping my knees
Going halves on a tangerine
Wanna know why everything worth holding
Turns to a blur in a distance
That's why I'm clenching my fists
I know all this is what it is
You don't get the same day twice
Still every night
There's something that won't heal
Don't feel right

[Chorus]
Nothing good ever lasts
The girl I was never came back
Staying up, falling off track
So much I wish I knew
Flew too close to the sun
Who I was, she was made up
Threw a punch, had to take one

[Post-Chorus]
It's what they say
Time's just pocket change (Ooh)
That I'm wasting away
Grieving what's still alive (Ooh)
And fighting with an ache that won't subside

[Bridge]
Oh
Oh, oh
All of this is what it is
You don't get the same day twice
Still every night
There's something that won't heal
Don't feel right

[Chorus]
Nothing good ever lasts (Don't last)
The girl I was never came back (Came back)
Staying up, falling off track (Ooh)
So much I wish I knew
Flew too close to the sun (Yeah, yeah)
Who I was, she was made up (Made up)
Threw a punch, had to take one

[Post-Chorus]
It's what they say (They say)
Time's just pocket change (Change, ooh)
That I'm wasting away
Grieving what's still alive (Ooh)
And fighting with an ache that won't subside

[Outro]
Oh
Na, na, na
