A Beautiful Mess Lyrics by Yours Truly

Too Late For Apologies - EP

2017

[Verse 1]
Sleep tight
I hope I haunt your dreams still like you're haunting mine
Late night
And I just can't help but think that we're just wasting time
[Pre-Chorus]
We had no direction like a candle's flame at the wind
Moving forward, back, don't know where to begin
I'm in the rain but I see the clouds clearing
The calm before the storm
[Chorus]
If this is the end
Then I'm sorry that we met
I don't wanna pretend (I don't wanna pretend)
When it's easier to forget
It's a beautiful mess
Nothing more and nothing less
And I don't wanna be friends (I don't wanna be friends)
'Cause when the spark goes out
In this dark cold heart nothing's left
[Verse 2]
Street signs
Remind me of places and faces I used to lie
And it's just not right
[Pre-Chorus]
We had no direction like a feather thrown in the wind
Time is up because the candle burned both ends
Just flying high but I feel I'm falling
It's in the eye of the storm
[Chorus]
If this is the end
Then I'm sorry that we met
And I don't wanna pretend (I don't wanna pretend)
When it's easier to forget
It's a beautiful mess
Nothing more and nothing less
I don't wanna be friends (I don't wanna be friends)
'Cause when the spark goes out
In this dark cold heart nothing's left
Nothing's left
Nothing's left
[Bridge]
I'm like
A candle's flame in the wind
Burning
Don't know where to begin
In the rain
I see the clouds clearing
[Chorus]
If this is the end
Then I'm sorry that we met
I don't wanna pretend
'Cause when the spark goes out
And this dark heart
It's a beautiful mess
Nothing more and nothing less
And I don't wanna pretend (I don't wanna pretend)
When it's easier to forget
It's a beautiful mess
Nothing more and nothing less
And I don't wanna be friends (I don't wanna)
'Cause when the spark goes out
In this dark cold heart nothing's left
Nothing's left
Nothing's left
