Since I Left You (Demo) Lyrics by Joy Crookes

Perception - EP

2019

[Verse 1]
Since I left you
I roam like a penny
Give nights to so many
But I sleep alone
In the daytime
I wake then I slumber
Get high when I want to
My body's my own
[Chorus]
You dined on my demons when I was just seeking
For someone who I could call home
You saw our future but mine was without you
You knew that I needed to go
'Cause freedom don't come for free
I guess it cost you and me
[Verse 2]
The promises broken
The words stayed unspoken
You weren't what I'd chosen
Made you feel it in bed
Lay your body down with me
'Cause this is the last time
For some reason no surprise
Will I see you again?
[Chorus]
You dined on my demons when I was just seeking
For someone who I could call home
You saw our future but mine was without you
You knew that I needed to go
Oh, freedom don't come for free, mmm
I guess it cost you and me
[Bridge]
Your eyes, they don't flutter
Our shadows don't whisper
Our sexiest moments are lips on a Rizla
Uh-oh, mmm, the smoke
See, passion be calling
Comfort's a warning
No fun in the evening
I'll leave it 'til morning
Let go
It's time to let go
[Chorus]
'Cause freedom don't come for free
I guess it cost you and me
