The Reaper Lyrics by Shortly

Dancer

0

What if it turns out you’re not who I thought you’d be
After all I don’t know anything
And what if it turns out people were listening
But it’s too late cause I’ve given up on them
Things break when you let them fall
Turns out, I’m just a hypocrite
Keeping secrets, it’s selfishness
Turns out you were right all along
I’m just a shadow of what I once was
Will you be there when I fall?
If I’ve given up you were my backbone
My best friend’s on the back porch
Smoking down my neighbors
No one comes around here anymore
My best friend’s on the back porch
Soaking up the reverb
Cause no one sings around her anymore
Turns out you’re who I thought you were
Casting shadows in the darkness, wearing black on black
And you’re still in love with
