Saying goodbye is death by a thousand cuts

Flashbacks waking me up

I get drunk, but it's not enough

'Cause the morning comes and you're not my baby

I look through the windows of this love

Even though we boarded them up

Chandelier still flickering here

'Cause I can't pretend it's okay when it's not

It's death by a thousand cuts

I dress to kill my time

I take the long way home

I ask the traffic lights if it'll be alright

They say, "I don't know"

And what once was ours

Is no one's now

I see you everywhere, the only thing we share

Is this small town

You said it was a great love

One for the ages

But if the story's over, why am I still writing pages?

'Cause saying goodbye is death by a thousand cuts

Flashbacks waking me up

I get drunk, but it's not enough

'Cause the morning comes and you're not my baby

I look through the windows of this love

Even though we boarded them up

Chandelier still flickering here

'Cause I can't pretend it's okay when it's not

It's death by a thousand cuts

My heart, my hips, my body, my love

Tryna find a part of me that you didn't touch

Gave up on me like I was a bad drug

Now I'm searching for signs in a haunted club

Our songs, our films, united, we stand

Our country, guess it was a lawless land

Quiet my fears with the touch of your hand

Paper cut stings from our paper-thin plans

My time, my wine, my spirit, my trust

Tryna find a part of me you didn't take up

Gave you so much, but it wasn't enough

But I'll be alright, it's just a thousand cuts

I get drunk, but it's not enough

'Cause you're not my baby

I look through the windows of this love

Even though we boarded them up

Chandelier still flickering here

'Cause I can't pretend it's okay when it's not

No, it's not

It's death by a thousand cuts (you didn't touch)

Tryna find a part of me that you didn't touch

My body, my love

My trust (it's death by a thousand cuts)

But it wasn't enough, it wasn't enough, no, no

I take the long way home

I ask the traffic lights if it'll be alright

They say, "I don't know"
