Pride Lyrics by City Calm Down

Echoes In Blue

2018

[Verse 1]
Won't you turn away from me
In case you find you disagree
With the person I've become
Since I’ve wandered on my own
Oh I wish I'd fall from sight
From the focus in the light
To the place where I grew up
Or somewhere else I may belong
[Chorus]
You step a little bit closer
Even though I've asked you not to
You step a little bit closer
And it suffocates my pride
[Verse 2]
This skin cracks like autumn leaves
On the surface of my street
That I'm scared of treading on
In case I walk too far from home
Education fills my floors/flaws
I've misread it all before
There's no easy way to learn
If I am really in control
[Chorus]
You step a little bit closer
Even though I've asked you not to
You step a little bit closer
And it suffocates my pride
You step a little bit closer
Even though I've asked you not to
You step a little bit closer
And it suffocates my pride
You step a little bit closer
Even though I've asked you not to
You step a little bit closer
And it suffocates my pride
You step a little bit closer
Even though I've asked you not to
You step a little bit closer
And it suffocates my pride
[Bridge]
Each time I figured I was strange
You looked as if you didn't know
In spite of everything I've said
I hoped that you would never go
I couldn't bring myself into the light
I muttered "won't you get lost"
I'm hollow in this skin
Stay with me and you'll recognize this soon enough
You've got your race to run
You've got your race to run
So follow on
You've got your race to run
You've got your race to run
So follow on
You've got your race to run
You've got your race to run
So follow on
You've got your race to run
You've got your race to run
So follow on
[Chorus]
You step a little bit closer
Even though I've asked you not to
You step a little bit closer
And it suffocates my pride
You step a little bit closer
Because you've recognised
That in my isolation
I'm as cold as I am vain
You step a little bit closer
Because you've recognised
That in my isolation
I'm as cold as I am vain
You step a little bit closer
Even though I've asked you not to
You step a little bit closer
And it suffocates my pride
