Rather Be Dead Lyrics by Evalyn

Sandcastle - EP

2017

[Verse 1]
Early morning, hear you creepin'
Losing my head, baby, where have you been?
Far away, so far away
Yeah, I'm thinkin' you been drinkin'
I let it sink in, baby, when I say you're not the same
No, not the same

[Pre-Chorus]
I swear to God I won't see you again
Everytime that we fight
The smell of the liquor don't scare me away
But one of these days it just might

[Chorus]
I'm fine 'til I crash down from the high
And I wake up by your side
Can't make up my mind
I would tell you that I love you but I'd rather be dead
And that's why, when you pulled this shit before
That I'd walk right out the door
But I'm back for more
I would tell you that I love you but I'd rather be dead

[Verse 2]
Can't check your phone when you're out with your friends
Not comin' home yet, so I'm gettin' stoned, yeah
Every night, oh, every night
And it's a problem how far I've fallen
I hit the bottom 'cause I keep on callin'
All the time, oh, all the time

[Pre-Chorus]
I swear to God I won't see you again
Everytime that we fight
The smell of the liquor don't scare me away
But one of these days it just might

[Chorus]
I'm fine 'til I crash down from the high
And I wake up by your side
Can't make up my mind
I would tell you that I love you but I'd rather be dead
And that's why, when you pulled this shit before
That I'd walk right out the door
But I'm back for more
I would tell you that I love you but I'd rather be dead

[Bridge]
Got it bad, sick in the head
It makes you laugh 'cause I always come right back to ya
Got it bad, sick in the head
It makes you laugh 'cause I always come right back to ya
Got it bad, sick in the head
It makes you laugh 'cause I always come right back to ya
Got it bad, sick in the head
It makes you laugh 'cause I always come right

[Chorus]
I'm fine 'til I crash down from the high
And I wake up by your side
Can't make up my mind
I would tell you that I love you but I'd rather be dead
And that's why, when you pulled this shit before
That I'd walk right out the door
But I'm back for more
I would tell you that I love you but I'd rather be dead
