Sinking Lyrics by DAG9EL

Directions

2021

[Verse 1]
I know I knew you for just two weeks
But out of 52 a year I swear these two were the peak
Now you're gone and now I’m feeling so weak
I'm tryna keep it all inside, but shit it's starting to leak
Damn
I always thought I couldn't feel
You came and proved me wrong, I thought what we had was real
See I’ve been covered up in layers, you were starting to peel
I fucking showed you my soul, I guess you wanted a meal
And it’s funny
I was too scared at school to even say hello
You've hit me with that Jon B shit, I’m at an All Time Low
So now I’m down and feeling so alone
And I just thought I’d let you know
I felt a rush when we were together, that’s why I’m writing this letter
Was crippled by the pressure, I just can't decide whether
I should be crying, still be trying, meant every word that I said, uh
I swear it fucking sucks, but it's probably for the better

[Chorus]
Thought you were the one
Turns out I was wrong
Now I’m thinking
That all you had was fun
Thought we had a bond
Now I’m Sinking

[Verse 2]
So now I've told you how I felt
They say time heals all wounds and I promise it helped
And I’m just tryna get the best out of the hand I was dealt
"Heyyy Dan, I like you too... Sike!"
Ohhh well
"It's not you, it's me"
Girl I thought it was "we"
And I just fucking find it hard to believe
How you would lie from the beginning and I just couldn't see
That you were fake just like that Catfish show on MTV
You see
Rejection fucking sucks, but fake love it swallows
So I’ve been dealing with the aftermath and all that follows
I said it didn't even bother me yet felt so hollow
But shit I ain't the type of guy to sit around here and wallow
No imma go sky high like I’m the fucking Apollo
I wrote this song, stayed strong
I’m getting through this cause I know
There's plenty fish in the sea
And since there's no more “we”
Good luck tryna find a guy who is more loyal than me

[Chorus]
Thought you were the one
Turns out I was wrong
Now I’m thinking
That all you had was fun
Thought we had a bond
Now I’m Sinking

[Outro]
Going down below
Time is passing slow
I can't keep you off my mind girl
I think I’m gonna blow
Guess it goes to show
It was all one-sided, and I don't blame you no
You don't owe me nothing
But still it fucking hurts when you give it your all
And you fall, because it turns out it just isn't enough, ay
