'What If I Said That You Didn't Have To Stay' by This Wild Life. New album Ever Blossom is available now at https://lnk.to/everblossom

Lyrics:
Nothing hurts like you do baby
Nothing keeps me down
I said “I don’t think you’re happy lately”
Then there was no sound
What if I said that you didn’t have to stay?
My heart is under my ribs but my love is not a cage
Fuck the distance, we’re just distant
And I’ve been howling but you don’t listen
To a word I say
I was underneath the moon, I was thinking about you, hoping you could feel it too
You were underneath the clouds, you were lonely in the crowd, you were bringing me down

Slow to start but quick to give up
I’ve been beaten down
I guess the bottoms just the place to
Build from solid ground
Cracks in my life are where the light is shining through
I let it reach my skin but I left nothing for you

I didn’t mean to tear you down to nothing, but you’re not worth a damn if you’re not with me
I never meant to cause you so much heartache
But I don’t give a damn since you set me free
And after all the hardships that we’ve been through
After I saved you from yourself
It served no purpose cause I lost you
Along with the best part of myself
