Paperweights Lyrics by TABAL, Alfie Neale

2022

[Verse 1]
Your hand on my neck
Fake smiles and cold sweats
We always try to talk it out until it’s hopeless
How can you catch me with a stare and I don’t notice?
How can I stand in my own house and still feel homesick?

[Chorus]
But I won’t you hold you down like paperweights
I can’t help the way the wind blows anyway
Say you love you love me turn and walk away
I try to tell you but it’s hard for me to say
I try to tell you but it’s hard for me to say
I try to tell you but it’s hard for me to say

[Verse 2]
Two feet apart
Our rose cheeks and cold palms
Told you it’s warmer in my arms
But don’t you feel the distance
We never felt before
Baby I can’t tell the difference between sitting here and standing on my own

[Chorus]
So I won’t you hold you down like paperweights
I can’t help the way the wind blows anyway
Say you love you love me turn and walk away
I try to tell you but it’s nothing anyway
I try to tell you but it’s nothing anyway
I try to tell you

[Outro]
No I won’t hold you down like paperweights
And you don’t know it learn from my mistakes
Tired of waiting on a change
So tired of walking in the rain
