SANITY Lyrics by Elsje

2024

[Chorus]
Why did you let me go the whole day thinking I
Had you wrapped round my finger
Got me risking my
Sanity
Won't you come back to me
How could you run away
And leave me like a child
I tried to hold on but your trust in me has died
Sanity
Won't you come back to me

[Verse 1]
I went through all the phases of grief
Like a hurricane, it's relief
From the stagnant loving you leave
Surface smooth, what's waiting beneath?
I went down to the grocery store
I don't care what they see anymore
Contact blocked, it's hard to ignore
Getting somе closure, it's something I can't afford

[Pre-Chorus]
So can you tell mе why (Why, why)
When I was with you it was always high (High, high)
We did the least I've done with any guy (Guy, guy, ooh)
But you always left me feeling satisfied (Satisfied)
So can you tell me why (Why, why, why)
You're breaking up with me, don't even try (Try, try, try)
The "It's not you, it's me"
I'm sick and tired (Tired, tired, tired)
Of giving everything and ending up crying

[Chorus]
Why did you let me go the whole day thinking I
Had you wrapped round my finger
Got me risking my
Sanity
Won't you come back to me
How could you run away
And leave me like a child
I tried to hold on but your trust in me has died
Sanity
Won't you come back to me

[Post-Chorus]
Let me go, oh (let me go, oh)
Let me go, oh
Let me go, oh
Oh, oh

[Verse 2]
I went home, fumbled 'round with my keys
Didn't tell my father for weeks
Don't need pity, don't need to weep
I'm not sad, but I'm losing sleep

[Pre-Chorus]
So tell me why (So tell me why)
You're breaking up with me, don't even try (Don't even try)
The "it's not you, it's me"
I'm sick and tired (I'm sick and tired)
Of giving everything and ending up crying

[Chorus]
Why did you let me go the whole day thinking I
Had you wrapped round my finger
Got me risking my
Sanity
Won't you come back to me
How could you run away
And leave me like a child
I tried to hold on but your trust in me has died
Sanity
Won't you come back to me

[Bridge]
Why didn't you tell me you were struggling
Just let me in your head
How was I supposed to know, ooh

[Interlude]
Ooh, ahh, ahh
Ahh, oh, ahh, oh, ahh
Oh, oh, oh

[Chorus]
Why did you let me go the whole day thinking I (why)
Had you wrapped round my finger
Got me risking my
Sanity (why)
Won't you come back to me

[Post-Chorus]
Let me go, oh
Let me go, oh
Let me go, oh
Oh, oh
