Alkaline Lyrics by Rivals

Sad Looks Pretty On Me

2021

[Verse 1]
Can I be honest?
I'm getting scared of fading out
Hearing the whispers
They say I'm old news now
All that I've wanted
Is being ripped right out my mouth
Can I be honest? Can I be honest with you?

[Pre-Chorus]
Is there composure in the pain?
Can I ever find my peace?
Will I ever balance me?
Took the shot without the aim
Hoping I would feel something
Will I ever balance me?

[Chorus]
They swore that I'd be fine
But nothing feels right
They swore that I'd be fine
There goes my alkaline
They swore that I'd be fine
But nothing feels right
They swore that I'd be fine
There goes my alkaline

[Verse 2]
Will you be honest? Am I just inside my head?
Know that I panic, 'cause I'm scared of losing this
Do I sound crazy? Losing faith on accident
Will you be honest? Can you be honest with me?

[Pre-Chorus]
Is there composure in the pain?
Can I ever find my peace?
Will I ever balance me?
Took the shot without the aim
Hoping I would feel something
Will I ever balance me?
I know that
They said it
They lied and I bought it

[Chorus]
They swore that I'd be fine
But nothing feels right
They swore that I'd be fine
There goes my alkaline

[Bridge]
Swear that I have been trying to change
Balance got the best of me
Vertigo inside my brain
Dizzy, trying to find some peace
Emotions got the best of me
This alkaline's become my pain

[Chorus]
They swore that I'd be fine
But nothing feels right
They swore that I'd be fine
There goes my alkaline

[Outro]
(Swear that I have been trying to change)
(Balance got the best of me)
(Vertigo inside my brain)
(Dizzy, trying to find some peace)
(Emotions got the best of me)
(This alkaline's become my pain)
I know that
They said it
They lied and I bought it
