Dead people don’t tell stories Lyrics by Red Tears

Listen

2021

Chorus: Red Tears
I'm alive but I'm dead, that's my threat, that's what he told me
That's what he said, got to my mind, told me something, now I'm worried
Life's not to test, gotta watch what you say
I see the same thing, this shit happens everyday
They don't notice my pain, but they notice my mistakes
I don't mean to hurt you, but I'm scarring everytime it rains
I don't do things badly, I just do things differently
All these problems stacking up, and all they do is lifting me
Verse 1: Red Tears
I didn't change, I just put a new mask on
For you to accept me, now what you gеtting mad for?
I got killers with me
In all white sheets
I'm dеad inside (You just passed me)
I'm alive but I'm dead, there's no shadow without a light
I'm tryna see behind the curtain, my mind catches quite a fright
Everytime I open a curtain, there's another one
Tell me if you think I'm fearless, this story will soon be done
I can't tell you the story, how it's done, and how it goes
Cuz I'm dead, it's a show, it's scaring me, I only know
Life's a bitch, fuck this shit, that's a mood, that's a vibe
Sorry for the rain, it's gonna come in, always, by surprise
Chorus: Red Tears
I'm alive but I'm dead, that's my threat, that's what he told me
That's what he said, got to my mind, told me something, now I'm worried
Life's not to test, gotta watch what you say
I see the same thing, this shit happens everyday
They don't notice my pain, but they notice my mistakes
I don't mean to hurt you, but I'm scarring everytime it rains
I don't do things badly, I just do things differently
All these problems stacking up, and all they do is lifting me
Verse 2: xPainWarriorx
Tears from your eyes, nah, don't lie, 'cause you know what I've been through, I did the whole 9
Pulling up a chair, like it's storytime
I just wanna wait, if it's the wrong time
Just let me know, let me know, yeah, ayy
Don't make it harder for me
But you gotta start telling me things, yeah
Don't know what this hell of a life might bring, yeah
You just gotta-
You just gotta tell me what's up
Externally alive, but internally fucked up
I guess we ran out of luck, huh?
Don't run from me, don't from love
Tonight, we make up, in the morning, we fuck, yeah, yeah
I think it'd be better for us to stay apart
Don't wanna hurt your heart, baby
I just don't it's working out for us, yeah, yeah
Chorus: Red Tears
I'm alive but I'm dead, that's my threat, that's what he told me
That's what he said, got to my mind, told me something, now I'm worried
Life's not to test, gotta watch what you say
I see the same thing, this shit happens everyday
They don't notice my pain, but they notice my mistakes
I don't mean to hurt you, but I'm scarring everytime it rains
I don't do things badly, I just do things differently
All these problems stacking up, and all they do is lifting me
