Barely Lyrics by HOAX

words that end with wh(y)

2017

[Verse 1]
You, you pick up
Where she left off
But I need a change
I get away
The way you blow my phone up when
It’s getting late
I lose my faith

[Pre-Chorus]
There’s no easy way to say this
I’m afraid
Why you always want tomorrow
Without today?

[Chorus]
Well ask me if I feel
Ask me if I’m real
Ask me if I’m anything at all
And I will say barely
Barely, barely

[Verse 2]
You, you give up
Where she left off
Say I need to change
I play it safe
The way you curse my voicemail
When it’s getting late
I lose my faith

[Pre-Chorus]
There’s no easy way to say this
I’m afraid
Why you always want tomorrow
Without today?

[Chorus]
Well ask me if I feel
Ask me if I’m real
Ask me if I’m anything at all
And I will say barely
Barely, barely
Ask me if I feel
Ask me if I’m real
Ask me if I’m anything at all
And I will say barely
Barely, barely

[Bridge]
I knew a girl from the Jersey Shore
She used to make me make the drive
When she wanted more, and we would
Come alive, come alive, come alive, come alive
She told me time don’t exist
It’s a gun in hand and we all
Pull the trigger just to get her mad and we
Come alive, come alive, come alive, come alive
And all the pretty people
With their silhouettes
Wait for Armageddon's coming
Just to clear their debts, oh yeah we
Come alive, come alive, come alive, come alive
And if we ever get better
It’s because ourselves
And if we make our way to heaven
It’s cause we’re in hell, oh yeah we
Come alive, come alive, come alive, come alive

I kill, when you kill, people
And I will, if you will, equal
Come alive, come alive, come alive, come alive

I kill, when you kill, people
And I will, if you will, equal
Come alive, come alive, come alive, come alive

I kill, when you kill, people
And I will, if you will, equal
Come alive, come alive, come alive, come alive

I kill, when you kill, people
And I will, if you will, equal
Come alive, come alive, come alive, come alive

I said
I kill, when you kill, people
And I will, if you will, equal
Come alive, come alive, come alive, come alive
