Deadline Lyrics by Maddy Hicks

Situationships

2023

How did it take eight months to say how we felt after one?
Oh, what a joke, what perfect timing
You're moving away next week but I still wear your shirt when I sleep
I kinda hope you leave it behind and come find it

It's always college, a job ends or an ex is back from vacation
Tell me why all my first dates have exspirations

I let it happen again and my heart is racing ahead
And I'm full speed ahead at a red light
There's something wrong with my head 'cause I'm only making my bed if your heart has a "for end" sign
And I knew that it was over the second that we tried
So why did I?
You're be leaving soon but I wish I didn't have to love you on a deadline, mm

I'm hanging out with your friends so you'll think of me when you're with them
I'm pretty sure you know what I'm doing

And I don't love you, I just think I could
Why does everything fall through when it gets good?

I let it happen again and my heart is racing ahead
And I'm full speed ahead at a red light
There's something wrong with my head 'cause I'm only making my bed if your heart has a "for end" sign
And I knew that it was over the second that we tried
So why did I?
You're be leaving soon but I wish I didn't have to love you on a deadline

I-- I don't wanna love you on a deadline
I-- I don't wanna love you on a last day, on a last night, doing everything for the last time
When you asked me if I'll miss you
I don't wanna love you, I don't wanna love you
When you're packing and I'm anxious and I'm acting like I'm not a trainwreck
Or at the airport when I tell you I don't wanna love you, I don't wanna love you, but I

I let it happen again and my heart is racing ahead
And I'm full speed ahead at a red light
There's something wrong with my head 'cause I'm only making my bed if your heart has a "for end" sign
And I knew that it was over the second that we tried
So why did I?
You're be leaving soon but I wish I didn't have to love you on a deadline
