Ribbons Lyrics by Eleni Drake

Can’t Stop The Dawn

2021

[Verse 1]
I oscillate around you
Like an unforgiving wave
Could you hurt me one more time
So, then we can say goodbye
In our own familiar way?
[Pre-Chorus]
I slept for a long time
But my problems followed the next morning
Chipping away at my dawning
The blue turned to grey
As my thoughts were forming
[Chorus]
And I shed tears of blood
Just to see how much I cried
Feeling dizzy, feeling helpless
I guess I should just forget this
Well, you know how much I tried
[Verse 2]
My clarity is burning again
Fuck my resolution and light a cigarette
Itching for my fixture in this unfamiliar picture
But I bet you won't notice me in the end
[Pre-Chorus]
Is it fair that the rain keeps falling
And thе sun doesn't shine?
I forgot that I grew up in England
So I'vе got clouds attached to my mind
[Chorus]
And I shed tears of blood
Just to see how much I cried
(How much I cried)
Feeling dizzy, feeling helpless
I guess I should just forget this
Well, you know how much I tried
Hmm, you know how much I tried
[Chorus]
And I shed tears of blood
Just to see how much I cried
(How much I cried)
Feeling dizzy, feeling helpless
I guess I should just forget this
Well, you know how much I tried, hmm
