Tainted Lyrics by Max Wells

2022

[Intro]
Problem lying, barely trying
You been silent, ran it by me I don't want it
You say you wish karma on me
Like I don't know karma about to get me

[Chorus]
I dropped everything I had to
Let me make it worth it
Won you and a raffle
Look how picture perfect
I made some mistakes
But I won't let that leave me tainted
Thats the only reason that I waited
Broken heart I should have seen it yeah
I know it's wrong I can't believe it yeah
We both got all of these demons
And I'm still not running away

[Verse 1]
Knew how to brеak me
I wouldn't stop you for nothing
Pull my heart out of my body
And call me out for my bluffing
I took a brеak for the week
I need you just to function
I wouldn't save it for me
But at least it's better than nothing
I got no problem lying, barely trying
You been silent, ran it by me I don't want it
Communication you don't got it
I've been waiting about to watch it all just plummet
We was lovers, really lovers building something
Now its numbing novocaine
Should have never been told your name
Now its all that controls the pain

[Refrain]
Should have never been told your name
Now its all that controls the pain
Should have never been told your name
Now its all that controls the pain

[Chorus]
I dropped everything I had to
Let me make it worth it
Won you and a raffle
Look how picture perfect
I made some mistakes
But I won't let that leave me tainted
Thats the only reason that I waited
Broken heart I should have seen it yeah
I know it's wrong I can't believe it yeah
We both got all of these demons
And I'm still not running away

[Verse 2]
No strings but what do I know?
I know nothing
Head in a spiral, its what love brings
Got it on arrival and I stay for peace and quiet
Ended up with all that follows
I learned one thing
You could really leave it like its nothing
Baby why you dreaming
What did I say?
You got everything I'm needing
But you never let me see it
Step inside and stop my bleeding

[Chorus + Outro]
I dropped everything I had to
Let me make it worth it
Won you and a raffle
Look how picture perfect
I made some mistakes
But I won't let that leave me tainted
Thats the only reason that I waited
Broken heart I should have seen it yeah
I know it's wrong I can't believe it yeah
We both got all of these demons
And I'm still not running away
