[Chorus]

We go from highest highs

To the lowest lows

You're that above

And wicked down below

This feeling was supposed to be

But loving you is killing me

Like I'm already dead

Our love is just in our heads

It's like I'm already dead

Cuz our love is just in my head

A burial


[Verse 1 ]

Imagine a couple that's hunky dory

Now scratch that, this ain't no love story

With you, it was constant back-back stabbing and oh, I'm so sorry

But half-ass apologizes aren't worth redeeming

If you still continue that fake-ass endearment

You don't care bout me, but you care what they're thinking

I only reach sanity when I am screaming

Do you hear them echoes, echoes?

That's the sign for you to let go, let go

Cutting you off like a sickle, sickle

But you very persistent for

Someone who's so distant

I don't understand what is it you tryna plan

When you say that you miss me

I'm confused as fuck regarding what, what you want to achieve

I'm already dead inside, can't you just let me grieve?

Nah, cuz you too invested in your image to see the damage

Of all my failed attempts to destroy what we’ve once established

Gone!


[Chorus]

We go from highest highs

To the lowest lows

You're that above

And wicked down below

This feeling was supposed to be (yeah)

But loving you is killing me

Like I'm already dead

Our love is just in our heads

It's like I'm already dead

Cuz our love is just in my head

A burial


[Verse 2]

I’m thinking nostalgia's my worst enemy

Blackmailing me with these memories

That we created

Put 'em in a box and isolate it

But you boxed me instead, still suffocating

Get what you give, not reciprocated

It’s the simple things that you complicated

Acting lovey-dovey, now who the fuck are you impersonating?

(Oooohhh) We were once on the same team

(Oooohhh) No coincidence that we intervened

(Oooohhh) But your absence makes it feel like a dream

Or a nightmare if you don’t knock off this twisted routine

Unshackle these chains

Give me some space

I need to retrace

Trapped in your maze

Leave this dark place

I need to escape

The war still rages within as I find peace in my sanctuary

Our former selves listed in this morning’s obituary


[Chorus]

We go from highest highs

To the lowest lows

You're that above

And wicked down below

This feeling was supposed to be

But loving you is killing me

Like I'm already dead

Our love is just in our heads

It's like I'm already dead

Cuz our love is just in my head

A burial


[Outro]

Just let me

Go!
