Dead On Arrival Lyrics by Thomas Frederick

Archive

2017

[Verse 1]
If my gut is anything to be believed
We're in a rut despite all that we’ve acheived

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Sorry to say words drenched in dismay
Too afraid to relay in case it leads you astray
But our love bouquet is in a state of decay
After the holiday how are we meant to stay?

[Chorus]
Were we dead on arrival
Just living in denail?
Might've been dead on arrival
With no chance of revival

[Verse 2]
Hear me out
I'd never want to push you aside
But there’s no doubt
The days apart are hard to take in our stride

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Yeah it's harder to face after months of disgrace
Letting love go to waste on little frivolous breaks
I'm easily replaced, it might be better to taste
Another boy's better chase in a tighter space

[Chorus]
Were we dead on arrival
Just living in denail?
Might've been dead on arrival
With no chance of revival

[Bridge]
I don't even know what I'm thinking
I only know I'm lonely
But you have always shown me
The best way to stop my spirit from sinking
In deprivation can’t show true appreciation

Just give me time
To remember why you’re mine
Don't wanna sound unkind
I don’t wanna get left behind

[Chorus]
Were we dead on arrival
Just living in denail?
Might've been dead on arrival
With no chance of revival

Dead on arrival
Just living in denail?
Might've been dead on arrival
With no chance of survival

Dead on arrival...
Dead on arrival...
